Haiku II

Days four through seven of the week-long haiku assignment were not bad, although I prefer the favourite I cited in the last post. 

 

A path obscured

Desire and fear mingle

But hide the truth

 

What truth is hidden, I wonder?  Any guesses?

 

Threads of silk and lace

Binding me like iron and steel

Does she hear my pleas ?

 

Again, the insect imagery is the way to my heart.  And of course I hear your pleas. I'm just not listening.

 

The world shrinks

A voice calls from the edge

She leads as she will

 

Beautiful. I do like this one. 

 

Artiface stripped

She sees what no one else sees

And does not turn away

 

 For those who attempted to send me devotional haiku in some format other and email or blog commentary, they did not come through. Contact is most appropriate through email, as I do not extend the privilege of chat to those with whom I have not sessioned.
