In a haiku mood I guess

Tiger eyes glow soft
amid the shadowing trees
by still waters deep
________________________

I weep over stones
piled to mark the sad past
under a pale moon
________________________

Swords clash heroes fall
wisdom is deserted then
outside my garden
_______________________

Eyes deep as her love
speak of those moments now past
as white cranes take wing

These are all stunning!

I especially love the last haiku. Fabulously rich in images.
