Sunrise Haiku On King Sun

king sun is peeking
over tropical waters. . . . 
palms wave a welcome

from the horizon
the monarch ascends into
a sea of dark clouds

in golden fullness
the sun takes its rightful place. . . . 
dismissing all clouds

in sky’s blue kingdom
above tropical waters. . .  .
king sun is peaking

Poet Destroyer A Date: 5/29/2012 6:15:00 PM HA ha, Andrea,, it seems as if every poem I click of yours has a comment of mine..Maybe you can point out a poem, of yours i did not read.. Maybe, you want me to sit down and relax, and comment a poem of yours with ,, a second thought... please ! Give me a title,, I want to read a poem and give it a hoot of a comment,,, I want to knock your socks off,, with the proper observation on your poem. I will pull a Ravindra, I sit and read the same poem, till i feel his poem speaking to me. I have nothing but, great love and respect for the poet,, Besides, he gives me the maximum characters a comment allows, on any poem he chooses to read of mine.. Let, me sit here and read any poem, you want me to comment on with a triple observation. Yes, if you must know I'm bored, and I read many not so thrilling poems this morning.. well I did enjoy most... anyways..I'll be here till I pass out... like a turkey ....pd Login to Reply

Margaret Foster Date: 11/14/2011 6:01:00 PM Allow me to quote James Kirup... 'Haiku should just be/small stones dropping down a well/with a small splash' unquote... I think your few small splashes together make a great wave of beauty at sunrise...luv Margaret Login to Reply

Robert Johnson Date: 11/13/2011 3:49:00 PM Forth stanza reminds me of the old Hamm's beer comercial's. The land of sky blue waters. How's that for bringing your fine work down to base humanity. :) Login to Reply
