Hawk skims
the tops of trees
New salesman grins

Hawk skims
the tops of trees
New mother frowns

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

The chimney still
puffs smoke from grandfather’s
empty cabin

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Trucks speed
up and down the frozen highway
Chakras

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Two trees fell
into each other
across the creek

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

The thief
paused in motion-triggered
light

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Moonlit pond
Brightened window on a
darkened street

Moonlit pond
Brightened window in a
darkened house

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

My city
Tall steel trees that stand
but never bend

My city
Fixed glass eyes that stare
but never tear

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Damp chill
Flag flutters in
streetlight

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Step by step
homeward in the blowing rain
Heartbeat

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Broad knotted oaks 
line the college campus quad
Racehorse

Gaps of light
in a cloud-filled sky; listen
to your children

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

winter crow
ache in my
teeth

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Winter gaunt deer
The empty 
church

Ken Wagner on Haiku Habits

Smokestack
plumes – The lost
argument
