sun creeps through fog
illuminating the murk
awakening
I listen for each lonely breath.

Nice One!
The clouds told him their names, in the quiet of the summer afternoon

scent of pine
and freedom
music plays
slight imperfections in my personality are NOT to be considered flaws but show that i am handmade and of the highest quality.

fire flash and thunder
scowling sky threatens deluge
on rain soaked bushland
A smile warms a cold day.

Thanks, frag.


bejeweled hummingbird
on mimosa blossoms pink
sips honeyed nectar
I listen for each lonely breath.

pink evening sky
reflecting on dark lake

A smile warms a cold day.

swirling gnats in sun
throes of conjugation
dragonfly attacks
I listen for each lonely breath.

feet pound wet pavement
bus starts to pull out of stop
next bus in two hours
A smile warms a cold day.

Not being able
to be with it at all,
jetlag
The clouds told him their names, in the quiet of the summer afternoon

Thanks for reminding us about this section. I had forgotten all about it. I do hope that you get over your jet lag.

squirrel holes pattern pine needles

This is a lovely haiku, but this isn't haiku tag. This is where you put a haiku that you have created on your own without tagging. If you want to tag onto another, there are two places--Haiku Tag or Haiku TREE tag, where the poem must be about a tree.

fingers tapping keys
screen changing very slowly
frustration showing
A smile warms a cold day.
