Seekers

Everybody knows, How to write a haiku, right? Oft this is wondered. But words flee from sight, The heart hides from herself, and The mind is alone The evening star falls And darkens the mortal plane With sorrowful sighs But the young seekers Are never truly lonesome While chasing the sun They climb mountaintops, Though cloistered in cold rooms, and Trapped under bed sheets They dive through oceans, And pierce the most distant stars On the winds of dreams Though their minds idle, And while their hearts still waver, Their souls stand as one
