Spring HaikuA soft breeze sweeps through
Pale cherry blossom petals
Carrying my tears.
PrisonerThe prisoners in
cages of sadness. What if
it was us instead?
Broken Temple Cradled by forest
And gentle whispers of wind
Songbirds softly call
A solitary temple
A broken shrine so patient

A stone goddess waits
Flowers adorn her figure
A smile on her lips
Arms outstretched to weary souls
Butterflies rest on her hands

So long forgotten
By all but the falling leaves
That ever praise her
And her sacred resting place
Hidden by nature's children
One minute past twelveLuscious shoe-lace skies
Tied in a mint moonlit bow;
Open this next day.
TimeRiver flows frozen
Birds like to dance in the sky
Another year past
Nightthe moon is outside
water rushes from the sky
my universe cries
NightThe darkness of night
Made complete obscurity,
Then comes daylight.
Haiku - Springtime!
Hope is in the air

                    The wonders of creation

                                              Can you hear feel the warmth?
Lavender- HaikuLavender smoke drifts
Burning sweetly in my pipe
I am calm, at peace
The Sun KingLook at the Sun go down,
In the fire lit sky,
Burning. Melting; into night.
Watch the sun die slow, calmly,
The night takes over,
Arising in the daytime.
Breaking in the crack of dawn,
Taking its birthright,
Ruling the day forever.
Valentine's SeasonValentine’s season
Full of happiness and love,
Rain falls silently.
Seasonal HaikuA sparkling moon:
Shimmering in the water,
A glittering eye.

I feel the wind blow—
Blushing bright autumn colours
Turning of new leaves.

Frothy white waves soothe
Troubled minds. I scrunch my toes—
It’s too cold this year...
The Weird Colored Birds.The white and rusty
Brown colors adorning each
Bird mean it's springtime
momentsunny air
spiderweb shadows
soon summer

campfire smoke
cherryflower dance
gracefully now

through the air
like an uncommon melody
white petals flow
WastelandImmortal fallout.
Invisible specters stay
to echo silence

April 21stbeside the stream
rushes towards the sea
bending an ear
April 20th twenty-five yearsHow could I forget after twenty-five years that today is our anniversary?
But I did.
I forgot to get you a card, or,
to look at it optimistically:  I forgot I had got you a card.
But, if so, where is it?
The 'Be The Change' elephant poo card will have to do.
What change I don't know.
April 19th ashesembraced by fog - the cotton wool of heaven,
soon to be visited by the volcanic ash - perhaps,
we wait enthralled by rain and its lashings,
we, the masochists, that love the icy touch,
the arctic breath, and hunker down beneath
the snowy blanket

Finally! My entry for the :iconthe-haiku-club: Fire and Light contest. [link]
The sun briefly came through the clouds the other day and I saw gems in the snow. I learned while sitting in on the gems course my husband teaches that one of the aspects of a gems quality is how much fire it has.
I made it a one line haiku because I felt that suited the subject matter.
