Us

sparks stray to my soul
music-smile till passions cry
what if boredom's creep stalks us?

life stages dangled
lively talk tings like wind chimes
restored canvas tinted love

Greetings Sam, Thank you for your kind comment. This piece was entered in a modified Haiku contest with an altered syllable count but it received an NA till Brian gave it a placement nod. Be well. Thanks again. Brian

And even though times of routine or even boredom, nevertheless the loves of our lives nearby! God bless!
