Haiku

I was waiting until I had 15, but stalled out (as you see in the post below). So here are 14 haiku, and links to where I posted them. If more fall out as I keep internetting, I'll add them at the bottom.

spring, bursting from cold
though in more temperate climates
warm eases to hot


-

fleeting chances seen
encounter present and past
save quick for future


-

hued layers of thought
unfolding to breathe sunshine
bountiful live art


-

colors in riots
dyeing for beauty sublime
find new hues and heights


-

weaving wildling
twist your branches round my wrist
winds jealous, we dance


-

to study is life
growing new thought and knowledge
not to die, to dye


-

ideas spring forth
bookshelves deeper than eyes
soaring wishes thrive


-

spring growing hasty
she blossoms into rainbows
lady pink tulips


-


humanity revealed
false points to damage destroy
creation of pure thought


-

reminder to look
examine each as another
always time to seek


-

Actually, that was only 10. Four are missing for want of approval, including the one that started it all.

*le sigh*

edit: One more, and it would be an appropriate ending note

-

such similar sights
first and last symmetrical
your dawn is my eve

-


Of a sudden, I wonder if I'm mistaken about the timing. It's 11pm here... and that was posted to my RSS reader at least 5 hours ago. So mayhap I am mistaken. But forgive me, the photos did look like sunset. I'm not familiar with this "dawn". Check the link, and if you disagree with me... keep it to yourself. ;)

edit again: Three from earlier have been approved. With just over 30 minutes left on the clock, I bring you back to the former total of 14 haiku for this springy Sunday. Tell me if you notice any themes
-

from hard science truths
ode to loss of golden light
our sad, sticky state


-

animatronic
city with and stage without
changing of our arts


-

and last of all, the one that started it all...

a sea to swallow
eye and I, truth reflected
twins of no difference

Comments:
This is a really good idea, and I feel very privileged to be so included. Lovely haiku.
It was sunrise, which has got very colourful lately, but it does'nt matter, the principle's the same!
 
Annie, thank you so much for the haiku you wrote in response to my travel sketches. You really understand what they're about. Thank you so much and thank you for visiting and commenting. I admire your work.
 
Thank you both.

It's interesting, just as I got that second comment, I found this page about ekphrastic poetry that puts a formal name to what I did. I think.
