2 Haiku and a Senryu

Oh Great Mystery
Let me not forget myself
within my own prayers

	***


Warm sun hits my face
hyacinth fragrant breezes
peonies dancing

	***


Dancing Peonies
pink and purple faces sway
winking gracefully

I can see why so many stopped by to comment on this series. The opening stanza is of deep thought and the rest creative imagery for an interesting view. Nice use of personification to leave the reader smiling in the last haiku. Keep on writing! Thank you for your kind comment. Karen

Love the first Haiku. Sometimes in life we get so busy that we forget ourselves. Love the descriptiveness. Keep writing. Sara
