Rambunctious

Rambunctious 

Rambunctious rainstorms
Laugh – dance with rock and roll sun ~
 Promise of rainbows.

Sunrise bursting out
In bright shafts – hues of orange ~
 Bright eyed wake up call.

Brilliant yellow rays
Run across the morning sky ~
 Golden amethyst.

Peaceful blue - serene -
Sapphire skies deep as oceans ~
 Wadding in their depths.

Lush fields of green nap
Refreshed by rains after noon ~
 Emeralds flashing.

Sunset fire burning
Fiery plumes of red and rose ~
 A neon light show.

Paper thin moonlight
Fragile - delicate embrace ~
 Luminescent pearl.

Deep purple shadows
Softly whisper through midnight ~
 Lullaby – Good Night.

From dawn to dusk, your haikus are just alive and lively. The Hills are alive, Sam! Gorgeous! Warm wishes, Gershon

What a lovely message, Demetrios. Maybe a theme for a new "string" of haiku. Stay well, dear friend. Grace and peace to you.

I love the phrase "Sapphire skies deep as oceans". I am with Darlene on this one with her trinity of loves. Your panoply of colors and adoration of creation are a splash of joy across the page. Haiku are so perfect for brief thoughts of nature, but I enjoyed how you string them together. A fave for me. Still enjoying that one-character indent! Blessed ~ John

Hi John, again thank you for your thoughtful rainbow of insights! I do love that line. As I said to Tom haiku is a great teacher of brevity with a punchline! Hope you are well in day 31 of staying at home. I thank God that we are writers with poems to fill our days and wake us up at night!

When I first joined there was a poet called Mick Talbot and he was well into writing haiku, I got the bug, have done a few strings ,African anthology, Rainforest anthology, and Polar anthology. Amazed me how you can say so much in 3 lines.

Thank you so much Tom! Do I remember that you did a string of haiku? I loved the idea. Rambunctious is such a playful word for me. I am feeling a bit rambunctious after 29+ days of self quarantine at home All is well. Hope the same for you. Over Fork Over!
