Tahera Mannan Poet Haiku

Wind

Wind
                                       ~~~~                    
 
                     Gentle wind's~~~~ delicate fingers
                       Sensually caress... blushing leaves

                      the arctic blast~~ with frozen icicles
                         freeze the leaf's tender marrow
                              the reign of deadly cold---

                          summer winds~~~~ hot fire
                       dries and curls the leaf's soft life
                              perish to the ground

                       warm spring wind~~~~~ blows
                         revives the parched dying leaf
                                glory has returned
