a misty mirror
reflects autumn leaves falling
like rain in a lake
reflects autumn leaves falling
like rain in a lake
the butterfly rests
on the white chrysanthemum
ruffled by the breeze
on the white chrysanthemum
ruffled by the breeze
searching for the stars
between dark clouds in the sky
in the dark ocean
between dark clouds in the sky
in the dark ocean
daisies by dozens
out behind the cowshed
secret lovers
out behind the cowshed
secret lovers

Another great series -- I really like the longing in the third :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best --
Thanks ... that haiku took me longer than all the rest ... trying to connect the ocean with the stars and clouds ;-) I think the first one might not be kosher ... the first and third lines aren't quite interchangeable.
DeleteHmmmm..... I thought it worked fine ....
DeleteWhen I read it last night, backwards it didn't sound quite right
Deletelike rain in a lake

but as I kept reading it I realized that it did actually work ... a moment of confusion?
Oh I like the mysterious and secretive ending. I always enjoy a visit to your blog...
ReplyDeleteThanks Moonie ... it's nice to see you drop in and I'm happy you liked that last haiku :-)

ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment! I had fun with the 4th one, it more or less wrote itself and i too like it a lot :-)
ReplyDeletesearching for stars under a cloudy sky sounds like lost sailors.
