lights faded on your stara dancer's grace was
embedded in her bone-deep
muscle memories
La tete dans les etoiles - A head full of stars(scroll down for English)

La tête dans les étoiles

Amarré au quai
Rêve bleu au goût de sel
Un cliché s’envole

----

A head full of stars

Tied up to the shore
Blue pipe dream, its taste of salt
A cliché takes off

Close your eyes my dear,
Quit talking for a moment,
And enjoy this.
Challenge Haiku 38 - Little girlYoung, small and fragile
Playing among the flowers
Pure innocence born
*Game of Marbles*Vibrant colours swirl
Glass marbles, small works of art
Lost, no longer mine.

A Fresh StartWatching the sun rise
Yesterday's pain fades away
I can start anew
Challenge Haiku 40 - LiesFibs and deceptions
Those words you spun together
Heart stabbed by each one
*Cold*Quiet, space has no noise
Cryo-sleep dreamless and cold
Blank faces frozen

RebirthShe swelled with pride and
joy, for their pride and joy swelled
from a second chance.
Insomnia    Through the darkened skies,
light shall flood the plains of sleep.
       The sun has risen.

 Daylight beckons them,
coaxes dreamers form the deep.
  Back to life's prison.

Morning's bright disguise,
holds evil within its keep.
    False reality.

  Conscious, they condemn
their minds to be led like sheep.
    Night's mortality.

PerfectionHair glowing, red fire.
Your eyes, emerald beauty.
Perfect, without me.
Challenge Haiku 41 - WorkDaily grind of life
Needed to survive this world
Different day, same shit
The Irony Of LifeIt's so ironic
that living my daily life
sucks my life away
forsaken by loveForever smiling, all your wishes have come true, so you'd like to think

On and on it goes, until it hits you harshly, your dreams turn to dust

Running will not help, it will hunt you far and wide, forcing you to hope

Some say love is good, but if it makes you suffer...is it really good?

Aftermath of tears, any marriage can end bad, should i care at all?

"Knock on wood" they say, does praying help more than that? why no answer yet?

Even as i doubt, after being scourged by love, it beckons me still

Not caring to flee, i walk towards it again, asking for more pain

But maybe this time, it might be diff'rent for me, i think to myself

Yeah

Summer

:iconakarra:

Ripples – murky pond -
fanning out against the dark
the color of chalk

Just wanted to try out the prompt for the contest: [link] Obviously this is not an entry. Yeah, this is what I was staring out a window looking at today.

More haiku and thoughts on haiku.

Ah, so it's not the word "nature" that has to be in the first line... but a piece of nature rather... GOT IT :giggle:

I really like this! It's descriptive and has a rainy summer/spring day feel to it (had that all day too).

Traditionally: in Basho, the reference situating the reader is in the first line. If you go to that Wikipedia entry on kigo, there's even a list of what is approved.

Obviously I'm just playing around. I really like how this one came out.

You are :D It's what I think makes you great :nod: You stretch my imagination when you play.

I did read the wiki (but remember, technical thinker ;p ). I might try another Haiku tonight even though it's already almost 1am.

Already the entries in for your prompt are so neat. Maybe if we're lucky, and our collective muses will it, we can make a world made of haikus alone. I know how you feel though because that's exactly what I did when I wrote mine this morning as I listened in from the outside. The pond is real, and the imagery makes it come to life. Nothing too fancy, just the sweet sight of quiet pond.
