Haiku Blooms
Bamboo vines swaying
Sunlit hours casting shadows;
Darkness swallows light
~~~~~~~~~
Eyelids fluttering
Fatigue closes window blinds;
Dreamy landscapes call
~~~~~~~~~
Haiku moment blooms
One transcendental fragment;
Frozen time reveals
~~~~~~~~~
Raindrops streaking lines
Lightning camera flashing;
Still life photo shot
~~~~~~~~~
Marathon runner
Forty-two kilometres;
Adrenaline rush
~~~~~~~~~
Fruit shop vendor styles
Pink watermelon smiles curl;
Ear to ear aglow
~~~~~~~~~
Old granddad neighbour
Knee surgery aftermath;
Pain loiters limping
~~~~~~~~~~
Starbucks coffee brew
Caffeine fix for blurry eyes;
Workday exfoliates
~~~~~~~~~~
Dangerous curves tempt
Fast and furious viral catch;
Insidious intent
~~~~~~~~~
Fickle fancy flings
Picture stakes a thousand words;
No birds sing today
~~~~~~~~~
Glimpse of beauty bright
Shadows evaporate fast;
Promise of new day
~~~~~~~~~
