Black Waves


Black Waves are coming
They come crashing to the shore
My eyes reflect them

Cool haiku, Maria. Love how this poem ends, the waves of a brave poem come crashing in on my eyes. Delightful poem, preparing a heart for what? O my, tell us more. Love always.

Well you will have to tell me, after all each viewer will perceive a different story, or so I'm told ? Just kidding Freddie, thank you so much for your delightful visits and comments...Maria

Hi Maria. I have to admit. The title caught my attention. Nature and forces are powerful and ever changing. I found this expressive and clever how the reflections the waves and your eyes reveal the same. It was also interesting you chose black. Thus the dark side. Well done including the format itself.

They say the eyes are the mirror to the soul. Are you pushing away the darkness of the waves? Amitiés

Not anything so ominous as that Anne-Marie. I'm building up to a series of a 'not so happy Mother Nature - rattling her chains'. Thanks for your appreciation.
