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.

Destiny

Strangers parting ways
on a busy street corner.
Will they meet again?

Can't Pick

Forced to choose between
bad and worse, better and fair.
Life, such hard choices.

Power

Tall mounds of fresh snow
melt slowly but get dirty.
Corruption of clout.

Really, I'm Not Kidding

"It is raining here!"
"On that side of the street? Nah.
I don't believe you!"

Close to the Heart

What can make us sad?
Loss, pain, want, snub, or rebuke
of those we hold dear.
