PROGRESS UPDATE
Write one haiku a day for a year
A goal of Skye Lynch on their 101 Things in 1001 Days list with a status of In Progress.
September Haikus!
Shimmer in the light
Sparkle of love's reflection
Captured in your eyes
Captured in your eyes
The silhouette of the bed
Upon which we sleep
Upon which we sleep
Life's endless raging river
Begs us to awake
Begs us to awake
NO! Life fights the ebb and flow
Eddies circle round
Eddies circle round
The rain returns to the sea
Flowers face the sun
Flowers face the sun
Petals tanning into bronze
No hats for daisies
No hats for daisies
For their lovely, wild beauty
In the earth should stay
In the earth should stay
Magma and the rotting dead
Both unwelcome here
Bothe unwelcome here
Point and counterpoint return
Minds closed to reason
Minds closed to reason
Humanity's common norm
How I yearn for more
How I yearn for more
Like wolves howling at the moon
I lope after you
I lope after you
Spelled U-I-L-O-P-E
My brand new password
My brand new password
Lingers long upon your lips
Touch again to me
Touch again to me
This password, I swear to you
It is yours, not mine
It is yours, not mine
My words will be much more kind
Let me whisper them
Let me whisper them
(The words you long to hear), soft
So that I can't hear
So that I can't hear
Fingers to skin softly touch
Read my glistening lips
Read my glistening lips
Crimson rush to orbit
Dizzy heights freefall
Dizzy heights freefall
Floating to terra firma
Kissed by autumn grass
Kissed by autumn grass
Study clouds gently floating
Wind eddies through trees
Wind eddies through trees
Clouds and darkness, no sunlight
Foreboding takes hold
Foreboding takes hold
It's another bad news day
Turn off the TV
Turn off the TV
Stop all the ticking clocks
Death speaks in whispers
Death speaks in whispers
We had let it go before
Here it is again
Here it is again
New holidays before us
Resolution time
Resolution time
A clock missing its hands that
Never strikes the hour
Never strikes the hour
Overnight in a winter
Yet to blow its nose
Yet to blow its nose
Baby Cyrano sneezes
Elephant snot spreads
Elephant snot spreads
With water and soap, all suds
Handler soaked again
Handler soaked again
Elephant can't help its sneeze
Grey like foggy days
Shimmer in the light
Sparkle of love's reflection
Captured in your eyes
Captured in your eyes
The silhouette of the bed
Upon which we sleep
Upon which we sleep
Life's endless raging river
Begs us to awake
Begs us to awake
NO! Life fights the ebb and flow
Eddies circle round
Eddies circle round
The rain returns to the sea
Flowers face the sun
Flowers face the sun
Petals tanning into bronze
No hats for daisies
No hats for daisies
For their lovely, wild beauty
In the earth should stay
In the earth should stay
Magma and the rotting dead
Both unwelcome here
Bothe unwelcome here
Point and counterpoint return
Minds closed to reason
Minds closed to reason

How I yearn for more
How I yearn for more
Like wolves howling at the moon
