Haiku 37

wide and warm, where I lay
sleeping beneath
blue blanket nebula

I see that you divert the short/long/short version of the form into a long/short/long one. Very peaceful ... gazing at a lovely spring sky, I presume. I used to lie down in our corn field and spend ages listening to the rustling corn plants while dreaming my time away! // paul

A bit unorthodox of a format, but it felt right when I was writing it :) Sounds like a tranquil time to me ... wasting time, but your soul gets rejuvenated.

And a beautiful blanket it must be, brings a lot to mind from a creative view.

Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments. "Blue blanket nebula" was a euphemism for the blue sky and how cozy it is to sleep beneath it...

this is really good haiku in my opinion as you have captured both sight and feel, two of the senses, beautifully.

Love the warmth and cool of Blue you have managed to combine in this Haiku.
