Passion

TV news flash
New trade pact;
Bubbly economics

~~~~~~~~~


Digital movie mania
Hollywood and company;
Visual impact strikes

~~~~~~~~~


Bad weather havoc
Torrential rainy outbursts;
Flood waters invade

~~~~~~~~~


Poise in sure noise
Instant cacophony;
Chamber orchestra

~~~~~~~~~


Music floats
Harmonica melody;
Street corner performance

~~~~~~~~~


Fancy menu here
Foreign language 101;
Mystery order Must-Do

~~~~~~~~~


Wit in sure jazz
Jest in fond fest;
Birthday wishes trend

~~~~~~~~~


School talk to teens
Simple conversations;
Story telling highlights

~~~~~~~~~


Sleepy slumber steals
Conscious lamentations;
Words not included

~~~~~~~~~


Rain and more rain
Wetness everywhere;
Wet is the new dry

~~~~~~~~~


Sadness slips and slides
Rain takes all away;
Empty feelings loiter

~~~~~~~~~


Purge all reason
Ditch common logic;
Seize pure inspiration

~~~~~~~~~


Dark is the night
When light goes out;
Even sleep feels deep

~~~~~~~~~


Look to passion
To defy reason;
Let purpose fashion

~~~~~~~~~


Lone owl hoots
Somnolent gestures;
Story book ending

~~~~~~~~~

Well done Leon; this long string of haiku does you proud. As usual, I read your work over and over and allow the taste to linger on. Excellent, my friend. // paul
