Fumble , Glance, Banter..... 3WW.. prompts which indeed threw a challenge for a haiku..
She fumbles to glance
Banter appears familiar, ah,
Her grown-up past smiles
***
She fumbles again
Gets stuck, banter stops, present
Glances and wonders...
***
A harsh, angry glance
Past fumbles, no more banter
She moves with present

Thats a transformation...and that too a lovely one...but growing can cost a lot...yet i guess inevitable...
ReplyDeleteConfronting opposition is the best way to end unwanted banter and move on. Treating serious issues with deliberately inappropriate humor is improper.
ReplyDeleteSo much said in so little... a biography of every woman.... so precise... so beautiful so true.. how observant...
ReplyDeleteThank you sir... you see all and capture all... it felt so special to have been understood without sharing a word

Hi Ramesh..this seems like a new format..three short pieces that could stand alone or as verses in a larger piece..I imagine someone looking in the mirror..trying to match a their age to their face..brave to imagine that female voice..yet, so well done..Jae (ps my security word was bless..seemed apt)..

Very clever. She grows up in just three haikus. Well done.
