In green field’s
Sow grow in fruity

A HOKKU

         I
Of Nature and man
What tragedy, sorrows wrought!
Wept, dawn cries its truth

        II
Autumn colors pale
White sidewalks heat mother earth
Sad, winds and morn's glow

        III
Earth and sky falter
Rivers flood with flowing trash
Blinded, mankind plays

       IV
Beneath oceans dark
Life its beauty imperiled
Greed, man bows to gold

Premium Member Summertime - the Japanese Hotan Style
~Summertime~
(Hotan)


It's summertime again
Folks are so happy is here
Spring is really gone now
Weathers hot
Some people enjoy
Others not
Temperature soar
Time to have some fun outdoors
Or relax inside.

Dilemma
(This haiku isn't in the ancient hokku form).

Indecisive mind
divided feelings
state of no response

.........................................
Coming and going 
spell out your real heart
the miss confusion

.........................................
Wandering brain
from house to house
where is thy root?

........................................
Like end of the road
walking away legs
heart still in love....
