Hello, friends!
Remember the haiku roundup I shared awhile ago? Here’s a sequel.:)
clumsy
what love it would take
to die to win a heart that
loves so clumsily!
effervescence
her effervescence
spilled from a deeper spring than
her frail emotions.
guitar
vibrating steel sings,
bouncing beauty through a void
and echoing joy.
laurel
You were crowned victor –
yet You placed the laurel wreath
on my guilty head.
starlight
starlight pricks the sky…
shatters the hold of darkness…
offers midnight hope.
diamond
diamond in the rough –
mere carbon turned gem by the
press of deepest pain.
Thank you to all of the Instagram friends who shared the prompts with me!
Did you have a favorite haiku?
