Short Poems [ String of Haiku and Tanka]
Petals
I see them falling
Twirling slowly in the air
Blown by monsoon wind
Butterflies
Fluttering their wings
Hover over the flowers
On a bright morning
Morning Glory
Unfurl their petals
At the sight of the warm sun
After a cold night
Leaves
Lay on the sidewalk
Wilted, returned to the ground
Their season's over
Nature
Is a reflection
Of life's seasons and changes
Where there's beginning
And ending to everything
That lives and grows in this world
I see them falling
Twirling slowly in the air
Blown by monsoon wind
Butterflies
Fluttering their wings
Hover over the flowers
On a bright morning
Morning Glory
Unfurl their petals
At the sight of the warm sun
After a cold night
Leaves
Lay on the sidewalk
Wilted, returned to the ground
Their season's over
Nature
Is a reflection
Of life's seasons and changes
Where there's beginning
And ending to everything
That lives and grows in this world

This is such a delicate, natural reverie. I'm going to come back to this after I finish my other readings for the day and just soak it in, so I can leave with this refreshing purity of peace. Namaste.

Beautiful poems Summer. Nature adorn the universe. Can't imagine how this world would look like without nature

I loved every single haiku. Can’t even pick a favourite.
Great ink.

And yet the cycle starts over in that perpetual way. So, basically, none of what you're writing about here can ever be boring because nature is always in a constant state of renewal. ;-)
