The fog has returned
Noiseless, creeping into pores
Fills me with numbness.

I wait motionless
For it's lifting, once again
The sun's warmth, to feel.


Waiting for the dawn,
Cold fingers in morning's chill,
Waiting for sunlight.

Whispers through the trees,
Sunrise over the mountain.
My heart is at peace.



Morning fog lifting
Spirits catching site of words
Bringing smile to lips.

Each minutes passing
Raising thoughts of the morrow
Where happiness reigns.


*while waiting to post in passions...a response to this was posted elsewhere (the italics)  and I responded once more ...thank you Mike...

Getting past a depression can be just like a fog lifting from your mind, going "where happiness reigns".  Nice images.

To love another person is to see the face of God.

I think its both hailu and senryu and nicely done too.

There are enough colours in the world,
To paint your own dreams,
You won't get them,
Till you try.

The sun's warmth, to feel.

Cold fingers in morning's chill,
Waiting for sunlight.

My heart is at peace.

Morning fog lifting
Spirits catching site of words
Bringing smile to lips.

Each minutes passing
Raising thoughts of the morrow
Where happiness reigns.

Sunlight streaming down,
Bathing my face in beauty.
The bud awakens.

Grown to life inside,
A tiny smile comes of age,
Bursting from my lips.

Day began with smile
Warmth continued to follow
Led by wishful thoughts.

Sun's descent begins
Leaving coolness in it's place
To refresh my charge.

Clouds, glowing colors
Calm and soothe my restless soul.
Stars replace the clouds.

Shining in soft rays,
Ethereal light abounds.
My soul gains its rest.

Lavender blue skies
Seeping into nighttime dreams;
A driftng moon sleeps.

Morn's early sounds call
Chirping songs of a new day
Filling me with hope.

Moonchild, I enjoyed reading these. Since there are emotions or intangibles in each tercet, these would be Senyrus.  Very nice images of the day. Panne

These read beautifully.  I am just being introduced to these forms, by you poets, so I will refrain from that discussion.  Joyce

thank you  Joyce..they are Senryu's..I think I knew that back then but because some were of emotion and others a bit of nature I had titled it  both...thank you for reading
