haiku – Page 10 – One Woman's Quest

Overcast

Water mimics sky,
withholds resplendence of blue,
dons a grey raincoat.

No Wall

In weakness vines cling,
crave a solid bolstering –
sage advice: no wall.

(Written for Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge: sage / vine.)

Invitation

Dove sings of morning,
dew gathers on grass, scents air –
invites wakening.

Christmas Snapshot

Christmas morn blushing
with childlike fervour – outside
a chaste wonderland.

(Written for RonovanWrites Haiku Challenge: chaste / blush. Image from personal collection.)

Merry day all!

Mistrust

Promises mouthed
form no solid basis for
love – only mistrust.

Return to Kindness

A cup of kindness,
simple, yet moving target –
social tides failing.

(Written for Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge: cup/ goal. Image from personal collection.)

Endurance

Victorious love –
even in loss holds merit,
spurs the growth of wings.

(For Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge)

Heart Treasures

Hand holding conveys
child’s truth – trust in adult
a treasured honour.

(Written for Ronovan Writes Weekly Haiku Prompt: honour/ truth. Photo from personal collection.)

Post-Election

Change was the resolve –
a vote for democracy –
results leave questions.

(For Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge: question/ resolve)

Reverence

Natural beauty
stops the heart, disrupts breathing
instills reverence.
