Notes About The Poem

- Haiku X 118 - Fake and Truth -

Charmed by its beauty
                               Hear a sweet whisper of love
                                    Shiny fake diamonds

                                                  ~

                                     Pink lips temptations
                                 All these broken promises
                                          Perpetual lie

                                                  ~

                                   Truth like grains of sand
                                  Beyond golden cornfields
                                     Something very pure

Lin Lane Date: 7/13/2017 5:29:00 PM Phonies are always revealed. Those pink froggie lips are not appealing to me but that's one of the cutest gifs I've ever seen. My fave was the third Haiku.

Lisa Ricci Date: 7/13/2017 8:29:00 AM Good Morning Anne. I hope this day finds you well. Take a bow with your execution on the Haiku Suite. It flowed and read as one. The theme is timeless. May I say you also brought some fun besides beauty with your attached image. All is well within your entry in composition and construction. Have a wonderful day.

Maria Williams Date: 7/13/2017 6:48:00 AM Some people like living in a fake sense of reality sadly enough. They really dont want to open their eyes. The Haiku is genuine and real, and its really great....Maria xxx Login to Reply Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 7/13/2017 11:46:00 AM - I prefer my own "company" than fake "friends" ... even if it's shining ... it's not real - Thank you for your great comments and visits, Maria :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Chris Green Date: 7/13/2017 6:37:00 AM This was cute Anne-Lise. Though a little scary when I really think about it. But wonderfully written.
