Isolation time
In the empty house of rhyme
Outside the sun shines

A big thank you to Colleen (The Chatter Blog) for her thought evoking post yesterday, which inspired me to write this Haiku for her … you may visit her post by clicking on this link >> https://bikecolleenbrown.wordpress.com/2021/11/17/someones-truth/
Inside (a Haiku)
Within nothingness
Asleep in a ghostly nest
There lurks loneliness

“The reason why the universe is eternal is that it does not live for itself; it gives life to others as it transforms.” ― Lao Tzu
Quietly (a Haiku)
Time moves silently
Soundless is our universe
Infinite and bright

Dwindling (a Haiku)
The sunset subsides
Behind dark clouds there’s a glow
Where light turns to night

Today’s poem is a combination of three, haiku/ukiah/haiku, that I made on, Colleen, Kate, and Derrick’s articles yesterday and today.
“Truth” (a Haiku for Colleen) https://bikecolleenbrown.wordpress.com/2021/10/11/the-truth-is-yours/
“A Rainbow Dance” (a Ukiah for Kate) https://aroused.blog/2021/10/11/ukiah/
“Sunset” (a Haiku for Derrick) https://derrickjknight.com/2021/10/11/todays-hobbyhorses/
Is It True? “That Rainbows Dance At Sunset”
Your soul knows the truth
Within, feel the power grow
Live, breath, touch the flow
At the end of the rainbow
We shall dance and glow
On nature’s golden plateau
Blazing, the sky sinks
Sunset kisses everything
Fall’s finale crown

“Sentinel” (a Haiku)
Ancient clock-tower
Rural city sentinel
Over cobbled streets

“We build too many walls and not enough bridges” … Isaac Newton
Unfinished (a Haiku)
The bridges are burnt
Ancient connections lost
Unfinished missions

Hello dear readers and followers, today I am presenting another Haiku … I seem to be on a roll for writing Haiku lately … and I have no rhyme or reason as to why this is so … but I do enjoy the challenge of their concise format …
Church Mouse (a Haiku)
I hear church bells ring
Did an elder church mouse die
Grey clouds always cry
