Haiku Poems
#haiku
Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry, similar to senryu. Haiku are short poems, comprising of only three lines. The first and last lines of a haiku should have five syllables and the middle line should have seven. Unlike senryu, Haiku have a predominant theme of nature, and sometimes have no reference to humans or human artefacts.
A Downward Spiral
So many need help
A downward spiral happened
Whose to blame for this?

Drifting Thoughts
Ocean in motion
Waves crash as I drift afar
Let my thoughts take me

Hot sand, Hot woman
Wandering eyes, can't control
Don't get caught, or else

thistles and thorns love
indelible are the scars
countless as the stars

Sweet Subtleties
reeds in gentle sway
speak the stories of the wind
the day whispering

You Lose & You'll Come Back Again
The one arm bandit
Temptation lures you closer
Man versus machine
You know who will win
We humans come back for more
The house will prevail
Wallet getting thin
Lady luck please help me out
She's never around
I lost everything
Should I jump off this building
Nah, I'll be back again
Temptation lures you closer
Man versus machine
You know who will win
We humans come back for more
The house will prevail
Wallet getting thin
Lady luck please help me out
She's never around
I lost everything
Should I jump off this building
Nah, I'll be back again

No Such Luck
This is their motto
"Bet with your head not over it"
I didn't listen

pleated haiku
pleated haiku
Pleated magic
of maidenhood
skirt kite
rising sun
of peignoir dawn
morning kiss
silken touch
under satin sheets
summer heat
rose aura
on midnight mattress
dark burgundy
golden apple
glows with spring light
of lemonade

summer lass haiku
summer lass haiku
summer foliage
deep in Aphrodite's delta
enchanted forest
flute magic
of her blown melody
nirvana
bees buzzing
within her secret flower
sweet vibrations
tongued embers
warm confectionary buns
of her love seat
sweet petunia
in his palace of dreams
awakens to blossom
harlequin rose
scents his dreams
with perfumed petals

Zen
a quiet clock ticks
bare feet on the smooth wood floor,
this moment of zen.
