Passion

TV news flash New trade pact; Bubbly economics ~~~~~~~~~ Digital movie mania Hollywood and company; Visual impact strikes ~~~~~~~~~ Bad weather havoc Torrential rainy outbursts; Flood waters invade ~~~~~~~~~ Poise in sure noise Instant cacophony; Chamber orchestra ~~~~~~~~~ Music floats Harmonica melody; Street corner performance ~~~~~~~~~ Fancy menu here Foreign language 101; Mystery order Must-Do ~~~~~~~~~ Wit in sure jazz Jest in fond fest; Birthday wishes trend ~~~~~~~~~ School talk to teens Simple conversations; Story telling highlights ~~~~~~~~~ Sleepy slumber steals Conscious lamentations; Words not included ~~~~~~~~~ Rain and more rain Wetness everywhere; Wet is the new dry ~~~~~~~~~ Sadness slips and slides Rain takes all away; Empty feelings loiter ~~~~~~~~~ Purge all reason Ditch common logic; Seize pure inspiration ~~~~~~~~~ Dark is the night When light goes out; Even sleep feels deep ~~~~~~~~~ Look to passion To defy reason; Let purpose fashion ~~~~~~~~~ Lone owl hoots Somnolent gestures; Story book ending ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 18 November 2014 Singapore

Well done Leon; this long string of haiku does you proud. As usual, I read your work over and over and allow the taste to linger on. Excellent, my friend. // paul
