Written for One single Impression
Prompt: Verdant
I Walk On Concrete
Ah, my eyes and feet
miss that verdant greenery;
I walk on concrete
A lush green lawn
at my lost home of childhood;
light-years away, that
***
she waters the plants;
I too talk about greenery
religiously
_______________
Verdant youth tries to
express itself through haiku;
happy times ahead

I love these lines. Says a lot.
Thank you RS:) for this imaginative prompt.
nostalgic about the beautiful past, lush green gardens, children playing around.
ReplyDeleteWe have lost the beauty of childhood. The open lawns for kids have converted to playzones in closed malls.
Beautiful... Ur haiku so fresh!!! Verdant indeed! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely haiku. Nature and spirituality certainly go hand in hand.
ReplyDeleteYes, our childhood memories seem to include a lot more green don't they? These are all very beautiful. :<)
ReplyDeleteI really like this. I'm always impressed when a poet can right such powerful poems that are this short. Good work. It reminds me a bit of a poem I wrote in remembrance to a bit of a simpler time.
