September Heights #20 – Lights
*
Flicker up our joy
Lighting the future of soul
Sodden deep in despair
*
Playing with muses
In harmony with all life
No light in sadness
*
Green and blue around
Daytime brilliant in brightness
Darkness feeds all dreams

Mariya! What a wonderful poem–I love that phrase “Flicker up our Joy, Lighting the future of soul” Lovely.
What a brilliant set of Haiku
the words paint a vivid imagery there.
love the confidence in it.
keep it up.

Interesting direction … love the first two lines of the first one!!
