Ah! That salty air

Inspired by Sara’s haiku – here is mine …

The sea spoke dunder
Lost finds were brought back home
Stoned bed polish logs.

Carpe #617: delight in company.
I love to ask you to look at this prompt as if it was an episode of our CD special feature, ”Romancing the Haiku”, because I think this prompt is so right for romance.

Dancing stars in sky
embracing young mother Earth
light open faces.

Lost in real life

Skrivpuff: En angenäm busstur.
Carpe Diem Haiku: Special #119,
Tomas Tranströmer’s 5th ”a wild boar plays the organ”.

Loaded with heavy shopping bags. Heading for the bus. Sign shows 4 minutes to wait. Wating and waiting. A couple hugs and kisses. A fat man watching. An Indian man talking in the phone. Teenagers chatting in the waiting box. Smokers smelling ugly.

Tired of waiting
hooping the bus will come soon
want to be at home.

Entering the bus. Fall in deep thoughts and dreaming away. Enjoying the fairy land. Making my own fairytales by the way. On my way.

Waking up in chock
I don’t know where I am
Lost in real life.

Didn’t recognize the buildings. Where am I? M-street. Gone too far with the bus. Want to stop it at once. Next busstop. Out for entering the pavement.

Probably it was meant for me to have an extra walk.
A fairytale is worth that.

I like writing Haibun and include haiku.

Carpe Diem Ghost Writer #35

Carpe DiemWhere does Rengetsu’s “cold within the sound” lead you?

The ice blanket hugs
my body turns inside out
heart beats so slowly.

Am I dead or what?
Did my heart stop beating now?
I dream for answers.

….. I am still dreaming for answers ….
