Troiku – Mist Clouds

roaring down the beach
the wings are freezing
a sobbing wound

at the height of winter waves
a thought was caught
whistling stones

mist clouds
in memory of a song
ants in sunshine

The moon is humble

Both grasses and trees
waiting for the moon
dewy evening

HAIKU

dew glisten meadow
swaying in a last dance
the moon is humble

TROIKU

dew glisten meadow
grass and flowers sing refrain
end verse is waiting

swaying in a last dance
softly kissing the sweetheart
farewell is near

the moon is humble
a scene of nature romance
eyes closed by stars

Carpe Diem Special #122, Richard Wright’s 3rd haiku.

I give permission
For this slow spring rain to soak
The violet beds.

My TROIKU:

I give permission
for any child to enter
life school of today

For this slow spring rain to soak
every sad story behind
shine a happy day

The violet beds
lack a lavender pillow
Flooding in sunset

My HAIKU:

Spring rolly ground
some girls are playing hopscotch
the bench is empty
