Haiku Echoes

Orchard Boulevard
Heavy traffic;
Congested minds


Orchard Road crowd
Seeking diversions;
After hours delight


Beer guzzling cliques
Evening waterhole;
Downtown gathering


Shopping mall ambience
Restaurants fully booked;
Long queues waiting


Shopping spree
Bargain hunting;
Well-earned bonus


Baby boomers
Grey hairlines dyed;
Cluster to chit-chat


Evening stroll
Two old lovers;
Talking in silence


TV dinner recipe
Fruits and salad;
Crash diet plan


Ordinary moments
Triumph of simplicity;
Nothing to lose


Bills come
Regular as debt;
Payment requests


Old man,
Old woman;
Aged like brandy


Fleeting passage
Echoes in the wind;
Evening sanctuary


Write and ink
Poetic wonders;
New revelations


Blank canvas
Splash of paint strokes;
New art form


Wander far
Yet not lost;
Wonder dictates


Music strains
Piano nocturne;
Classical wit


Muse now amused
Flinging outburst;
Word-pictures spring


Relax and listen
Ink flow records;
Haiku prospects
