eyes blazing, preening
orange hues, pink and yellow
trampling white and blue
joy brimming over
sighing gently, pondering
she sits down to rest
combing strands of dust
weary arms stretched out to pull
cool blanket to wrap
embraced by lover
whilst wind chiming lullaby
closed her eyes to dream
embraced by lover
whilst wind chiming lullaby
closed her eyes to dream
Author's Note: Since the subject is nature, I used the haiku form. The haiku consists of 17 syllables, made of three phrases of five, seven and five syllables. Within this format, the Haiku was generally divided also into two parts standing in contrast or reversal to each other. The challenge of haiku is to catch the moment or an acceptance of the life’s impermanence per Shashi.
