HOME

Dusk is shadowy
If you dwell in the country
Hazy is the night.

PAUSE

Rain makes me feel bad
Lost love trickled like downpour
Water suffocates.

REFLECTION

Look into yourself
Would you buy what you can see
Heartbreaks are for sale.

DESPAIR

A hole in my heart
Laying on a hardwood floor
My heart is no more.

VISION

Bright and intense light
Filled the cavity with hope
My soul skips a beat.

ENLIGHTMENT

Hallucination
Filled me with things to come
Wonderful images fun.

METAMORPHUS

Staring up at me
Saw smile on my face, grinning
My heart had come back.

CONTEMPLATING

On the porch, rocking
Sunshine enlightened the sky
Letting it fill me.

COMMUNICATION

I answered the phone
She said "Let's forget the past."
I said, "Wrong number."

RESTORATION

A long evening walk
Nature told me I was good
I smiled all the way.

GOODBYES

Phone rang, I let it
Have to get a new number
This number is dead.

STORMY

Rain coming down hard
Free from fear I run naked
Into my future.

This makes me want to try my hand at haiku, I’ve always loved them. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Wow JP...you did so good. Each Haiku resonates and each one is so well crafted. One and all of your very best.

Kudos Mister
