Paul Callus Poet Haiku

Snipped Nature Haiku

twigs quiver	  wild thyme scent	life’s decline
   robins’		       my heart		    ebbing
   songs		         leaps		      tide

emotions		   autumn leaves         ode to joy
 morning		      windswept               starry
    dew		        dreams                  night

Charles Messina October 9, 2018 at 5:02 PM Excellent poetry Paul. Although I only asked for 5 poems, you gave me 6 (lol) none-the-less they are a fine group. Congratulations on your win and thanks for entering my contest. All the best, Charlie Paul Callus October 10, 2018 at 1:33 PM Thank you, Charles. I tried to project the same characteristics of a haiku; basing them on simple descriptive imagery would have been too easy. Regards // paul
