Written for OSI and Haiku Heights..
Weeds grow, I remove
Them, but then they keep coming
****
Beautiful roses,
Surrounded by weeds, Don'tWe meet them, often..
Here's especially for Haiku Heights Challenge…. Lets know more about Elephant and Ant..
Completes elephant, remove
Her, it's just ‘eleph’ ...
By RS : )
We do meet the roses often, surrounded by weeds - it's kinda like having a blog!
ReplyDeleteLovely haiku.
so very true Ramesh!
ReplyDeleteSo true... like negative thoughts!
ReplyDeleteI thoroughly enjoyed these, especially the first one. So true negative thoughts and weeds, both keep coming back.
ReplyDeleteI loved the elephant and ant one - such a clever play with the words.
Thanks for a great read.
a part of life indeed...!
ReplyDeletethoughtful n fun at the same time
ReplyDeleteRamesh, interesting Haiku. I liked them all but the one with the roses I liked the best. Well done my friend.
ReplyDeleteYes. Weeds do come bak like old past. Well said :)
ReplyDeleteGood writing, Ramesh. I like the second one as fitting me. I just dread having a closeness encounter with weeds. :)

I like the weeds haiku...specially the first one being negative thoughts.
ReplyDeleteAnd you last one is fun and creative ~
Ou thoughts can be compared with weeds. We've to clear them once in a while.
ReplyDeleteYour haiku is so simple yet thought provoking.
you did great with the "weed" prompt and the last line what a great twist!
ReplyDeleteYou're good at haiku, aren't you? :)
ReplyDeleteLoved both Haiku! A nice twist to the tale in the first one. I don't mean the elephant's tail! :)

ReplyDeleteTwo wonderful poems Ramesh...the haiku made me pause and reflect. Clever play on words.
ReplyDeleteVery true statements Ramesh!
ReplyDeleteI love the analogies in both weed haikus. Eleph-ant is just fun.
ReplyDeleteOh yes- negative thoughts are very much like weeds- have to keep removing those, don't we? Please stop by mine!
