Haiku Moment 16

Winding road uphill
Surprise awaits;
Mountain view

~~~~~~~~~


Heatwave chokes
Strangles pulse;
Still air heavy

~~~~~~~~~


Calm stillness
Temple echoes;
Stillness pervades

~~~~~~~~~


People gather
Prayer festival;
Two worlds meet

~~~~~~~~~


Hallway echoes
People pickle;
Sweet-sour vintage

~~~~~~~~~


Uneasy room
Words fumble;
Loneliness excavates

~~~~~~~~~


Dreamy distance
Broken bridges;
Mellow zeros

~~~~~~~~~


Happy looks sad
Funny senses;
Empty echoes

~~~~~~~~~


Sad moments
Pain exfoliates;
New chapter starts

~~~~~~~~~


Lovely patterns
Zen garden etchings;
Less floods more

~~~~~~~~~


Haiku recluse
Senryu lines slot;
Murky senses

~~~~~~~~~


Glyphs abound
Signals lost;
Meaning fades

~~~~~~~~~


Flowers fade
Autumn comes;
Cold indifference

~~~~~~~~~


Self-talk here
Solitary now;
I, me and myself

~~~~~~~~~


Change unfurls
Watch and see;
Enjoy the moment

~~~~~~~~~
