Restfulness breathes love

Heart and pulse pulsates like stars

Aglow

With serenity.


Love lets you listen

You'll reach out and touch someone

Cause 

Love in action rules.


Love wait and look deep

A treasured thing breathes passion

And

Inspires more love.


Love is boundless sea

A reservoir vast and free

Yet

Ebbing and flowing.


Love is rain and pain

Sunshine and moon glow it brings

So

Together we bloom.


Love is light measure

heavy dark clouds roll on by

So 

You feel energized.


Love's portion is treat

Sugar blues is way too sweet

So

Guard your appetite.


Love is  light and life

It will never weigh you down

No

It won't make you frown.


Love will wake you up 

Invite you on its journey

With

Light measure of weight.

Marquis, little creatures of earth, seasons, for example; they're the stuff of haiku, yes.

I'm not in Georgia, yet. Plan to be leaving around April 24th or so ... I'm moving into an RV, so it's a lot of downsizing with many things to sell (yard-sales and more yard-sales! ... ha ha) ...

So look at the end results; listen to music as you work.

These are gorgeous, Iris. You turned these haiku into more of a beautiful ode to what love is. "Love's portion is treat. Sugar blues are way too sweet so guard your appetite." Too much all at once and you won't notice it ... in small bites, it was taste sweet all over again. You've really blossomed here, in making me reflect ... love is only overbearing when we make it complicated. Keep it simple! That's what I get out our your last haiku.

"Love is only overbearing when we make it complicated." I love that thought.
