The windswept pines,
Limned by the light of the moon,
Reach into the night.

lumed limbs are outlined
pines backlit by harvest moon
standing sentinels

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

Interloper---That was extremely clever of you! It was a thoughtful and novel reply!---but, then again, novels are long, aren't they! Ha! Ha!


Thank you!

Dark sodden giants
loom through swallowed rainbow's face.
Rain pines on the hill.

I liked this, Linda.

Zall---I woke up this morning and wrote six more! I absolutedly love writing them. Actually, some of them are really "senyru" as VAS has kindly informed me with some of my past postings of what I thought were haiku. The only difference being, the haiku is on a theme of nature.

Thanks! I'll keep writing them, if you'll keep reading them!

wakes sleeping forest spirits

Linda, perhaps I should call you the haiku queen now? This is a wonderful haiku, and I really like sunshine's haiku as well

Take care,

Gold aspen moths
Sailing cluelessly on wind
Where Zephyr whispers



YAY!!! I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

What a sweet reply, but then again, it is coming from a 'honey' bee!
