    Intense and extreme
    the emotions of lovers
    giving and taking
    Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
    ~Albert Einstein

    giving and taking
    political forsaking
    grease their palms with red
    tailor

    who am I but a stitch in time
    what if I were to bare my soul
    would you see me origami

    grease their palms with red
    These cold blooded savages
    Unscrupulous swines.

    When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

    Awesome, tailor!

    Unscrupulous swines
    spreading hate, enjoying fear
    sad prayers are whispered

    It was so tragic
    In the history of U.S
    Las Vegas shooting.

    Amen to this beautiful haiku, Maz, thank you

    We need to continue, however, with the line, sad prayers are whispered

    Thanks, kiz_paws....yes, that was a very sad tragedy ....
    I simply couldn't believe an American would commit such savagery.
    Yes, this haiku surely needs the extra line you wrote ...in their memory.

    It is almost dawn
    Still there's no sleep in my eyes
    Hence no dreams to see.

    Hence no dreams to see
    when all tomorrow was lost
    staggering sadness

    Staggering sadness
    Like a cloud over a cloud
    Bearing lightening

    Bearing lightening
    two fluffy clouds are quarrelling
    a rainbow listens

    a rainbow listens
    To the silence of colours
    In every rain drop

    Poetically beautiful! Excellent, Maz.

    In every rain drop
    is a possibility
    rivers are singing

    we are privy to enjoy
    we should be thankful
