Breathe Blue Light

cedar blue evening
day breath held beneath titans
sun offers me stairs

I love a haiku, & my grandaughter likes it too. I read to her and have her read to me. So she will fall in love with reading and writing too :)

This is metaphorical haiku, which I happen to really like though some say not to use metaphors in haiku. I think it makes it very beautiful, Sheri. REally lovely this one! SEe ya. Andrea

Nice haiku! What are the "titans"? Are they the giant planets? Intresting! Peace & Blessings Matthew Anish

The titans are the cedar--they have the color, but they make the stairs and are giant, thanks for the welcomes everyone :) Sheri

This poem is quite evocative! Who are the "titans"? As to astronomy I once went to a "star party" and saw the rings around a distant planet. Welcome to Poetry Soup! Peace & blessings Matthew Anish "
