Hope Awaits

Here,  I lie motionless like the tint of  ocean's breath. A roulette
of fading stars glistens in tidal whisper of night,
and the incredibly sentient call of migrant birds wing
on ribs of leaves where tenderness gushes with tenderness.

clouds are scattering
in the midst of a blank pause...
lies a full mantle


How unstoppable are the eyes of winds spilling a basin
of potpourri into my territory,requesting the nymph in my body
for a sway of pleasure. Will I spare this  splendor so pagan 
and pure that my riled energy can smother the natural movement of this hour?
I welcome the flame, together with ice; and allow inspiration's flow to just be.

clouds expand, rain drips
new blossoms of hope unfurl...
and the air settles

Beautifuly written haibun, nette. the mantle is especially effective. I am amazed at how you can fit such imagery in three short lines. I have been reading too much minimalist haiku which lacks color sometimes almost completely. Thank you too for commenting on my Reshaping the Plea.

I like your vision of accepting opposites and then giving rise to the call of inspiration in the end. Brilliant poem, Nette!
