NO WITNESS
John Herlihy

Away the bird flew
No witness to my sorrow
Feathers wet with dew

MOON GLOW
John Herlihy

The dark night now light
Moon glow on my slippered feet
The stars beyond night

I enjoyed these very much. Your gift for imagery makes you uniquely adept at haiku. Are you sure these were your first attempts?
