Ian Kilfoil Poet Haiku

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.

Charlotte Puddifoot July 2, 2011 at 4:23 PM 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!

Kash Poet July 1, 2011 at 7:02 PM Very good write.As this is related to human being it is not a Haiku but a Senryu.
