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.

Thirst

It rains steadily.
Wonder why, it does not fill
my upside down pot.

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.

Where is Home?

Leaving home to go
home. Like rain drops from clouds to
earth. The expat's life.

A Thousand Words...

Can a picture do
justice to the grandeur of
nature? Wild Flowers.
