Haiku Moment 9

HAIKU MOMENT 9


Weary routes
Unknown potential;
Hollow acclaim

~~~~~~~~~


Indifference
Curious spectacle;
Vain allure

~~~~~~~~~


Win, lose or draw
No one knows;
Quest for the best?

~~~~~~~~~


Be bold
Be brave;
Dare drool

~~~~~~~~~


Morning rain
Lightning flash;
Wet everywhere

~~~~~~~~~


Dazzle debuts
Crowd frenzy feisty;
World-class finish

~~~~~~~~~


Accolades arc
A sea of faces;
Voices compete

~~~~~~~~~


Humility accepts
Harsh reality;
Truth hugs beauty

~~~~~~~~~


If you now know
Seize the moment;
Run along now

~~~~~~~~~


Possessions
Distractions;
Perceptions

~~~~~~~~~


Ready
Get set;
Prompt vanity

~~~~~~~~~


Be brief
Grief groans;
Joy jumps

~~~~~~~~~
