Smiles Grow on Stones
Entry for Haiku Heights prompt: Blemish
Scars on Moon's face
Nature's blemish turns a boon
Saves from ill will...
For One Single Impression prompt: Lonely
Thanks to Harshadji for a very thoughtful prompt.. it makes one contemplate a lot.. here's my humble attempt , a cluster of haikus....
Smiles Grow on Stones
Storm kills flowers; Sad
Butterfly dreams of new; and
Doesn’t feel lonely
Far deep in the sky
A lonely star fades away;
Many more appear
Happy Moon shines
Amidst stars; sends smiles to
Lonely Earth
A step forward
Heart lights on the palm
Loneliness vanishes
Friendship with
Loneliness; books on shelf
Tap feet and sing
Lonely hearts
Beam with delight; a handshake
Tells all with feel
Millions of fireflies
Descend on dark lonely lane
Smiles grow on stones

ReplyDeletei like the thoughts and spirit of your haikus...;-) never-ending positivity, it's like...'after the storms comes a bright day'!
or...'behind the clouds, the sun is still shining'...:-)
stars, moon, fireflies, flowers, friendship, they all make us a happy lot! loneliness seem to vanish like magic!
