Spooky Haiku

Haiku

A Stygian poem
can be  written in daylight
by the deadly lake.


In the lake of love
she was dead as an unsaid poem 
the sun too drowned.

Seven dead nuns in a boat
had succumbed by a sea of prayers
oars dripping tears.

Hello Jan oskar hansen, you leave the reader hanging-wondering what happened to the nuns I wonder. Enjoy your evening my friend.
