Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry.
The poems are limited to 3 lines and 17 syllables.

5 on the first line,
7 on the second line,
and 5 on the third.


I try to write one Haiku everyday.
Most days I fail, but some days inspiration strikes.
Sometimes it gushes for days at a time.
You can never tell when something will touch your heart.

Thanks for spending a moment reading
Haiku from the Heart.

I hope you'll be back to read my words.

Persistence

On my knees again,
pulling weeds in my backyard.
Longing for Winter

Hey, Want Some Food?

Hot day, homeless man
His profound gratitude just
makes me want to cry.
