Millard Lowe Poet Haiku

Notes About The Poem

        

 

        The sea is angry;

        The winds echo her screaming—

        The hurricane comes…

 

        Torrential waves

        Carry furry to the shores:

        Fragility doomed…

 

        Island paradise,

        Poised and ready for combat;

        Nature’s sad beauty…

 

        Nature lashing out—

        An unwanted canvassing

        Of hurricane grief:-

        

 

        The calm sea rippling...

        Lifeless bodies floating death

  The storm moves onward.

Hurricane Haiku: 5 Movements

		The sea is angry;
		The winds echo her screaming—
		The hurricane comes…

		Torrential waves
		Carry furry to the shores:
		Fragility doomed…

		Island paradise,
		Poised and ready for combat;
		Nature’s sad beauty…

		Nature lashing out—
		An unwanted canvassing
		Of hurricane grief:-
		
		The calm sea rippling...
		Lifeless bodies floating death:
		The storm moves onward.
