Endurance, haiku

Haiku Heights #112 – Endurance. This may be a senryu, honestly speaking 🙂

 

endurance will

molest the brave of heart till

their final fall.

Blue Haikus

Haiku Heights #111 – Blue This time I decided to offer two haikus – one “classic” and one American:

Bluebells ringing soft

My eyes will hear the whisper

Of the silent night.

***

At no haste.

Mirror on the lake.

Blue. Awake.

Fate

Haiku Heights #109 Fate

Fate will call me to
its edge – oblique, transparent
to stare in dismay.

Haiku Heights, Jan 1 – most inspiring prompt for the New Beginning: TRAVEL

***

Journey beginning
The suns smiles gently outside
Numb with cold. Thrilling.

Football Haiku – Nov PAD, Day 5

The prompt for Day 5 is to write a broken poem: either about something breaking, or something which is broken:

Football Haiku

Dizzy afternoon
Lazy air not moving there
A window shatters.

WINTER – Haiku Heights, Day 17

Haiku Heights Sept Challenge, not that I am even nearly up to it. Day 17:

WINTER

Frost bites us crazy
Till we forget our names and towns
Craze dulling us deep down.

Southern seas await
Ecstatic waves to surge up
At ease with dolphins.

In and out is all

we ever do for certain.

In and out is life.
