Haiku Poetry


from the ABC set HAIKU

-xxxxxxxxxx-

Days that swiftly flow
in the Sea of Forgiveness.
Happiness fulfilled.

-xxxxxxxxxx-

The warrior comes back
full of wounds, full of shadows
of souls left behind.

-xxxxxxxxxx-

I wander with pride
the realm of my daydreaming.
Imagination.

-xxxxxxxxxx-

The winding road ends
in the arms of my lover,
where my heart allows.

-xxxxxxxxxx-

Butterflies and birds
flying in my light blue sky.
Wings of freedom's dreams.

thank you steven00! These are five haikus. Each haiku a separate poem. I'm glad you liked them!

Great work Keiko, particularly liked the first 2 but can't seperate them in terms of preference. I love short works - when they are well done; these are.

Oh and Welcome to ABCtales ;)

One of my favourite short forms... I also like Tankas and Cinquains.
I wish I could understand Japanese and these Haiku were in that tongue, because I am sure they would be even more wonderful.
:o))
