Our snow is now gone, and we’re back to the usual rain (plus this not so usual wind). The haiku mood seems to be hanging on.

Outside Metrotown mall:

 dancing yellow leaves

chase each other in circles

across the pavement

 

Walking home from the skytrain:

above me, crows swoop

when wind lifts my shopping bags

I almost fly, too
