HAIKU MY HEART
WRITTEN FOR "recuerda mi corazon" HAIKU MY HEART
Tempted by glitter Night quietly plucks a star Moon cries in vain
so glad to have you here with your lovely/provoking haiku. you have packed strong emotion in a hand full of words,painting a picture of the celestial struggling so humanly!
What a fantastically beautiful Haiku you have there. Can picture it so vividly in my mind. Love the night plucking a glittering star. Keep writing such Haikus!! Pleasure to read them.
You asked me to visit and your haiku has served me well as a prompt. I leave here the way your haiku made me feel. Thank you.
The Long Way
The glitter deceives us as night takes our vision. We are left with bones. How the moon opens her heart, how she sobs, cries out across all our years, waxing and waning, and the tides still rise and fall. So it is with us as we rise and fall according to the long way we have still to go.
Christopher, thank you so much.. I feel enhanced.. well doesn't matter a Long Way ..you have just made my day.. waht a gift of a lovely poem..will cherish it always..
Ah, you have the true gift of Haiku, yes. You tell a story and your figures are the stuff of great myth. I love it. Very beautiful indeed. We have had a glittery sky here and the full harvest moon (called the "wine moon" has been crying I am sure) Noelle
A great visual of the night sky, it does look like glitter. And the crying moon. It outshines them all. Some nights it is hiding.

The glitter deceives
us as night takes our vision.
We are left with bones.
How the moon opens
her heart, how she sobs, cries out
across all our years,
waxing and waning,
and the tides still rise and fall.
So it is with us
as we rise and fall
according to the long way
we have still to go.
Christopher, thank you so much.. I feel enhanced.. well doesn't matter a Long Way ..you have just made my day.. waht a gift of a lovely poem..will cherish it always..
ReplyDeleteYour words tell a poignant tale. Lovely.

My bedroom window is in the roof, as I gaze out upon all that twinkles before sleep I will think of your words. Thank you.
ReplyDelete"Moon cries in vain."
ReplyDeletePretty image. Yes. Very.
Moon cries in vain...
ReplyDeletewonderful imagery!!!
All that glitters is not gold.
ReplyDeleteBut glitters tempt...
Wow, we speak of cosmic equations...such imagery
ReplyDeleteDamn that temptation!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful piece.
Lovely images. I love haiku for its spareness, its compression, yet its vast capacity to encapsulate beauty and truth in a few well-chosen words.
ReplyDeleteI see a shooting star,
ReplyDeleteCan I make a wish,
Will my wish be fulfilled or will it also go in vain...
