Haiku Song

Haiku songs sounds like blues
Splashing in a muddy pool
White rain with no umbrella 
Knowing Mother Nature is clever
Gracing animals with furry coat
Except for man woman you know
Howling at the moon on the hill
Like a cherry on top windowsill 
Song of somber seedless fruit 
Of barren darkness empty womb
Song of love sad and lonely 
Missing dove one and only
Tree that stood bent by time
Not all green good not all kind
Lamenting mahogany broken mind
Descendants talking about teal crimes

Karen, the different emotional sentiments work very well in this poem. You have realized something very special about poetry I think. I love just contemplating the images you've created and letting them take me to thoughts of my own. A real pleasure to read. Smiles!!

This is the highest form of compliment that you are inspired to thoughts of your own by anything I have written! Such sweetness comes from a wonderful heart and I shall not take it for granted! Duke I was under the weather and fell behind on communication here but know I treasure your work as well!
