Maybe Tomorrow

I waitin silence, the phone refuses to ring, maybe tomorrow. In disappointment Icall the phone company, ringer is working. I stare atthe phone, as if willing it to ring, clock says 2am. Tears filling my eyes, I finally drift to sleep, maybe tomorrow * I know Haiku's are supposed to be about nature, but this one just came to me in thisform.

you've certainly got a gift, I like how you take everyday events and transform them into poetic art, editors love this type of thing...strictly speaking haikus are nature or season related, some people bend this rule, a senryu has the same form as a haiku but is more about the human side of things, hope this helps!

Very good write.As this is related to human being it is not a Haiku but a Senryu.
