Haiku/Senryu

Winter Moment

Heart remembers warmth
nest frozen between branches -
stale abandoned home

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thorns of lost roses
warm rain pours in the sunlight -
prism rainbow

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We are like snowflakes
hurling pure by winter winds -
sparkle together

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Crisp branches
sun rays beam on tree -
winter rest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Clear water
bright sunlight shines down -
natural

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Stroking shedding hair
my loving hand teases him -
unsatisfied cat

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Birds chirp, tweet
frozen water melts -
nature's spring

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She sings olden words
celtic string instruments sound -
summer flower dress

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sun is shining rays
raindrops fall onto my tears -
lonely without you

Senryu

Blazing meteor
earth twinkles in other skies -
dead world touches life
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Universe of life
burst of planet particles -
night sky one less star

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Seventeenth march day
Birds chirp little eyes open -
Green angelic soul

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hands holding fingers
eyes are gateways to our souls
gazing inner self

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Separated beds
Hidden universe so free
We sleep together

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wonderous true love
brightest gift given away
eternally shared

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Truly loving you
learning heart through your words
true rainbow colors

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Passion burning eyes
Fingers run deep into skin
Sensual savage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Red cinnamon hearts
teeth sticking chewy candy -
addictive hot taste
