"As you awaken,
may all aspects of your life
brighten others well."
(Uncle Lar)
Like waves of the sea,
The clouds in the sky open
To pour molten gold.
My recent from the Shared HAIKU thread:
hangdog and roses
yet I love you so -
told with her twinkling eyes
forgiven once more
9/9/2017
the white lotus
your presence profound
such unimagined power
a white lotus whirls
9/9/2017
the eternal flame
enchanting lovers -
realm of the eternal flame
affairs of the heart
9/11/2017
there can be light
make friends with yourself
retire not to the black depths
of your tortured mind

Oh my, what a delight that you have revived this thread, Tailor! :)
I was looking for some haiku that I had pumped out in those old times.... but couldn't find them?!? *sigh*
In any case, got a couple now:
Living in the Now
is not as hard as it seems
take a deep breath - JUMP!
Good-bye to Summer
Autumn spreads her golden cloak
the days are shorter
Wheeeee!!
Eat Here! and Get Gas!
Was the sign at the road stop.
Couldn't help but laugh...
:lol:

O civillity
Where have the chivalrous gone ?
Mothers teach your sons
Help me i am trapped
in a haiku conundrum
save me before they
Anyone can curse
profanity not needed
think like Oscar Wilde
;)
For some reason I can't edit my recent post #451 and correct a typo:
O civility
Where have the chivalrous gone ?
Mothers teach your sons
Destructive bullies
dominate with their wallets
but you can't buy love
Madman on the loose
lacking commonality
New York City doomed :(
My prayers are with all those who suffered loss/trauma, etc., in this senseless brutality... :(
out: sex misconduct
in: new york terrorism
vegas shooting past
Blinded by the white
swirling dervish come what may
I have my hat on
Bomb Alley in France
July, Nineteen Forty-Four
Rest, our dear Bjorn
This haiku is dedicated to my dad's oldest brother, (family of 11 kids, my dad is the baby) Bjorn (Barney in English).
He served as a Radio Operator for a Canadian Troop. And was shot down in what they call Bomb Alley just before midnight, July 12, 1944.
He was 22 years old.
RIP Dear One

The day is so long
That even chirping sparrows
Fall strangely silent

Thank you, PB and Tony, for your kind words. :)
Life is the lover
that leans in and kisses deep
and is seen no more
And it went like this
you were happy, you were sad
It ends Ask Caesar
Loved this, Tony!Quote:

* Not meant to be a non-homage of the 50th anniversary of man's first steps on the moon, my haiku is an anagram of: "SpongeBob was my Broadway debut, and it was really hard for me." - a quote by Stephanie Hsu

Remembering forever

:lol: That is BRILLIANT, tailor! I love anagrams, but anagram haikus are a new one on me. Well done!Quote:
