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.

River, Mother

Jagged mountain rock, 
carried, polished, transported 
into adulthood.

Torn Social Fabric

Economic drought. 
Hopeless people pan-handle, 
stripped of dignity.

Hanging On

Unwilling to go,
winter covers the earth with 
a blanket of snow.
