Haiku

I tried submission
To the earth and its stillness.
The rain is my home.

–

For such tragedy,
Look upon the window pane.
Where golden sun drowns.

–

To want is human.
And in that necessity,
Lies the heart of sin.

–

I miss the winter,
The ever-falling silence.
Summer is so loud.

–

To hear the heavens
Roaring as a beast, enraged,
I am overawed.

–

The sky is ashen,
Rare and optimistic grey,
As sunlight prevails.

–

Carry ever on
With blind eyes turned to the weak.
Money to be made.

–

If you ask me, then
Sorrow is like chocolate cake:
Rich and exquisite.

–

Like an angel’s song
Calling me to venture home,
The rains have returned.

–

The dawning solstice,
Sunlight dancing through a stream.
Manic revelry.

–

The Goddess has gone
And left me in this province,
Bereft of beauty.

–

Shimmering daylight
So sublimely breaking through,
A sudden downpour.

–

Wispy clouds gather
Passing by without remark
Summer days endure.

–

The choir serenade
And fill the morning sunlight,
Taking to the sky.
