December Haiku Share
How about a romance, or any kind of relationship, even one that has gone sour. Or the ocean, moonlight, or the color blue again. Or any color eyes.
the ocean
bathed in moonlight
his deep blue eyes

green of her eyes—
the hands of the clock
move back in the mirror

skinny dipping…
a bright moon ripples
through the surface
i should feel
guilty for loving you
but i don’t
warm indigo waters
flowing into the canyon

beneath the sea
moans of the lost

I believe in the language of flowers.
It seems that what we need is just one special interpreter.
Communication of your haiku is great, Christine. 🙂
So beautiful, Christine!
i really like it
lovely, Chrissi.
Thanks, everyone! I’m appreciating my haiku and haiga even more with all your generous comments. 🙂
Oh these are all lovely.
only a gull’s cry
beyond the dunes

insomnia
moonlit waves
his kiss lingers

how Grandma would pray
for me

last night
after writing love poems
you may never hear
I stepped out to deliver
my heart to the moon
Ribbons, 7.4, Winter 2011
Oh, how lovely! 🙂
Ah, Margaret. So many layers to reveal . . .
I should say, “So few words. So many layers to reveal.”
just now
after reading lovely tanka
you may never hear
I stepped outside & scremed
to the moon, “she loves you”
Margaret, I will never forget your poem.:-)
Thank you so much, all, for the comments . . . and to you, Lech, for the lovely tribute! How nice . . .
