Haiku Veil 17

Wet day Slippery roads; Traffic jam ~~~~~~~~~ Joy jumps Love leaps; Knot tied ~~~~~~~~~ Seek truth Seize proof; Beauty blooms ~~~~~~~~~ Dawn sparkles Plumeria sunrise; Floral greeting ~~~~~~~~~ Old bamboo grove Silent sentinels; Leafy murmurs ~~~~~~~~~ Rainbow sky Sun beams bounce; Drizzle dazzle ~~~~~~~~~ Young lovers Parkway bench; Charm greets smiles ~~~~~~~~~ Wet market wares Food varieties shout; Picky customers ~~~~~~~~~ Lunch crowd Ready-to-eat food; Hungry mouths queue ~~~~~~~~~ Columbarium hallway Deserted niches; No one comes ~~~~~~~~~ Lines to write Reason declines; Verse craft lingers ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 15 November 2016 Singapore
