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.

Nesting High

Looking down into
the valley from my home, I 
feel like an Eagle.

Continuity

Spring blooms, but some trees
stay bare. Seedlings sprout below.
The circle of life.

Foresight

Majestic mountains
repose in blankets of clouds.
Bracing for Winter.

Innocence

Sunflowers kissing
in the wind. Alive, carefree. 
Pure and simple joy.

Expatriates

They travel far from
home, sinking roots in strange lands.
Like wildflower seeds.

Without a Doubt

Love is a river
of fire. Cross it with trust,
or it will burn you!

Can't let go...

The Apricot tree,
laden. But it won't drop fruit
till they are rotten.

I Can't Breathe

Living under the
smog of war. We will pay for
polluting the Earth.
