Haiku – Page 25 – Ivor.Plumber/Poet

Tribal

Tribal; A Haiku

I’m a proud member

A player in the world team

Now I’ve left the tribe

Dawn Eyes

Dawn Eyes: A Dual Haiku

Dawn eyes remain shut

Tiredness consuming my head

The birds are quiet

Eyes wide, looking up

I feel the ceiling crush down

Heavy sheets, like lead

Solitary, Haiku

Haiku

Solitary, thank you to Sue of Nan’s Farm, for inspiring me to write this instant Haiku. Featured Image above, my window in the centre, level seven, room 5.

Four walls surround me

Isolation inundates

Permeates my head

Dual Haiku

Reflect

Cloud level seven

A step closer to heaven

My time to reflect

Green

Green’s my spring colour

Sparkle on my angel’s wings

Green makes my heart sing

This haiku was a very sad piece for me to write. Personally, the words are an ode/tribute to our grandniece, Georgia, who was only 20…… Please, I’m ok, I’m wishing my words are appropriately good enough for the poor child lost….

A Flower Gone

In a sea of lights

She, an unpicked bloom, wilted

Young and fresh, now gone

Haiku. A Window Voice

Haiku

A Window Voice

I cannot hear the bird

Singing in the window tree

Birds are the free voice

Blue

Good morning dear readers, I’m not very well, a chest cough and cold, but I’ve time to recover before I fly to China on Wednesday, and today I’ve written another two Haiku for you. I’ll be fine, Cyndi’s looking after me, as soon as she finishes licking out my cereal bowl ….. I’ll rest up, listening to my music, and I sincerely recommend, you have a look at the Leonard Cohen Tribute concert, In Montreal 2017, on YouTube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSmvvUNTtTc&t=51s

Blue

Today’s deep sky blue
Warming my chest and soul too
Curing cough and flu

True, it’s a dog’s life
Who would kill a lonely cat
Peace to you and you

Haiku. Sky Blue

I’m covered in blue

The morning sky clears my eyes

Sea-air fills my lungs

Today

Here is a dual Haiku I’ve written this morning, and if anyone knows what this sort of Haiku format is called, please let me know.

Today

I walk past today

Remembering yesterday

Gone is tomorrow

Today my earth blooms

Yesterday is forgotten

Tomorrow I weep
