makes me smile

children safely tucked in
giggles still linger

a stranger’s breath on my neck
still – I’m all alone

CDHK “spiritual ways”

 

Our host, Chèvrefeuille, asks us to write a haiku where the “spiritual way” is included. Here are two of our host’s:

strong hands praying
at the corner of the street –
God be with you   © Chèvrefeuille

deep silence
only whispered prayers –
the scent of incense    © Chèvrefeuille

 

Hot embrace (haiku)

After months apart
melting in each other’s arms
their lips lock

Haiku Horizons “lock”

summer fun (haiku)

Inspired by Patricia Donegan’s haiku:

As rain drops diminish
I hear the tapping
of the monk’s wooden bell. © Patricia Donegan

after the downpour
swallows bathe in pools
of rainwater

Tonight
the cypress tree & I
lean into the wind. © Patricia Donegan

sailboat hastens
tall white sail tautens
wind at her back

tango of love (troiku)

bodies melt
yellow rose in her hair
tango of love

bodies melt
sowing their roots
forming one

yellow rose in her hair
fragrant
seductive

tango of love
acquiescence
fruitful foreplay

Our host inspires us on the Gorse Tree (bush) and to learn more, read it at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai

The Troiku is a new form of haiku created by Chèvrefeuille at Carpe Diem

bonding in the moonlight ( Troiku)

20160724_204239000_iOS

under the moonlight
sisters
savouring last call

under the moonlight
melancholy moment
– just a hint

two sisters
bonds stronger than steel
but, for their master

savouring last call
hoping for one last treat
‘til sleep takes over
