Haiku My Heart
Will It , Will It Not...
Ah, my shadow falls
just a little ahead of me;
Sun hits from behind..
Sun hits from behind
and sunflowers all laugh at me;
harsher summer winds..
Harsher summer winds
make the clouds wither away;
eager paper boats
Eager paper boats
look for puddles of water;
Rain Gods are silent
Rain Gods are silent;
burning sun dictates terms,
ah, my eyes shed tears
Ah, my eyes shed tears,
yet the dry rose is happy;
some hint of water
Some hint of water,
I see the clouds moving in
will it, will it not..
RS :)
A great flow to this ... and I'm sure it will.
ReplyDeleteHere in the parched parts of the United States, I think our paper boats are eagerly looking for puddles too! I love this image!

ReplyDeletethe rain gods have definitely not been silent the past week here, but no complaints from me, and the paper boats are thrilled! As always, your haiku paints lovely pictures...
ReplyDeleteWhen no rain comes, I suppose tears will have to do!
