RIPE POMEGRANATES

For Rebecca's Haiku My Heart 
and Haiku Horizons... prompt : Storm

Inspired by Rebecca's Haiku

RIPE POMEGRANATES

With her hair flying
she jumps to catch the pink fruit;
wind storm lashes out

*

Wind storm lashes out,
humble tree lets some fall;
ripe pomegranates..


***



Ripe Pomegranates;
she plucks crystal juicy seeds
lovingly for him

*

lovingly for him
she picks some pink guava too;
ripe pomegranates

*

ripe pomegranates;
he fondly remembers those
trees in his garden

*

trees in his garden
tell stories of his childhood;
she finds them juicy

*

she finds them juicy;
sadly those trees no more grow
ripe pomegranates

*

ripe Pomegranates;
she plucks crystal juicy seeds
lovingly for him

  2. I imagine the stained fingers and juice flowing over my throat. My blouse isn't ruined; it's time to make some dye. Pastels change to fall/winter reds.

  6. I really like your perspective on this prompt. Very uplifting and positive! I also like how you lengthened the Haiku into a poem with so much more than just 3 lines and 17 syllables while staying true to the structure and configuration of a Haiku. Very Awesome!
