He stays on #vigil Waiting for that last gasp Black & white rainbows Adorn his veil I feel How lonely he be But far from empathy I will never be ready To meet face to face Tho expectant I understand I wonder of the last face ever seen The final silence left behind #vss365

unable to hold back or be contained we become the wind and the sea

my existence isn’t just light dancing upon waters or whispering secrets between rustling leaves my existence is fringed with shadows travelling to the darkest corners of the universe where infinity’s heartbeat weaves my heartsong into a shooting star that sails past earth as a message of Love

dusty lane~ a bicycle bell around the bend #haiku

@only1elle.bsky.social I found her so late... What happens when everything else fades but her?

cicadas humming drowsy in evenings long dusk singing summers heat #dailyhaikuprompt hot night

nothing has been compared to the crescent moon Basho

open window an unwanted guest horsefly #haikufeels #haiku

please wake up there's so much to see

planting in the garden late evening a cuckoo keeps time #tanka #NaTanKamo #Maytanka #5lines

pools of rainwater rainbow prisms of color morning reflections #dailyhaikuprompt pools

filtered light gives body to mists rising from nights dew, liquid to vapor to birdsong alchemy of late May

The cancer has spread everywhere except my heart So sit with me, my child until my eyes float as two moons in a loving sky and my chest sinks like rain in the garden of all the hopes I sowed

morning forest~ curls of birdsong wrap around branches

#dailyhaikuprompt #verdant verdant landscape... the Lincolnshire view of jigsaw shapes

caladium bulbs~ i promise each one a window seat #haiku

my ribs peer through my skin as i go about my deathly serious task of surviving between the rain and the sun my laughter flows into your sweet rainblossom mouth and i can hear peonies growing through the wholeness of memory and i can hear a petal password for our return

within the echoes of my heart in the spaces of endearment plays my hiraeth melody melancholic musings always singing your name wistful evocations of you my love a time when your arms were once my home #vss365 #hiraeth

in the factory beating on first drum kit guitarists move in

soft rain— silence falls from leaf to leaf

early morning rain melted into sunlight

She had a stingy heart Until she didn't. Dying changes ones perspective. Leaving the sheets Hanging on the line Until the morning dew rinses them again. Her heart changed in the morning air And I was once again A motherless daughter Dew drying in the April sun.

stars are whispering she’s in an indigo mood new moon in Taurus #haiku #poetry

Your poem transports Me in a place full of joy The familiar smell

All this begatting and begetting awash in the fundamental forgetting of winters just passed and springs just springing. April’s hallelujah of re-creation intones warming air saturated in pheromones.

we tiptoed around it the fragments of our shredded dreams we tiptoed around it the segmentation shards of our shattered hopes we tiptoed ~together~ we tiptoed a p    a       r          t until i tiptoed & inconsolably crashed into the sea of broken hearts #vss365 Gif ~ Adam Taylor 📷

if only my soul was different shades of green skirted by plum trees in full bloom ache of spring #poetry #mpy #writingcommunity

beneath the tulip a fairy warms her wings— rain again 🌷🧚🏻‍♀️✨️🌧

At the side of my garden Tricky purples or blues Bell flowers Not to be confused With bluebells But they make your heart smile Just the same Cheeky little blooms #GracefulGarden #myphoto 📸

above the bus stop the patient constellations wait for the night bus

natural shelter protected before the rains on a lotus leaf

soft rain— a cherry blossom café for damp-winged guests

Endings The emptiness Heart broken Betrayed and forgotten Unforgettable agony Alone in one’s heart Can’t move on Can’t stay Road ends Alone in my thoughts Endings #vss365 #poetry #poem #end unsplash.com/photos/a-bro...

fresh dancers appear wreathed in lilac and rose grapevines in their hair #dailyhaikuprompt grape

May our eyes be graced with tears that our hearts may feel May our hearts beat a steady rhythm to remember the song May each note be woven together to find compassion For what was, what is And what is to come May joy return home #poetry #blueskypoetry

starting something new a little plain bitterness in the first lettuce

night garden— blossoms glow softly as the moon floats by

There is a sweetness to the air And I wish to be a honeybee Dancing from hive to honesty Clear blue as a bell Rung on that first true day.

i opened the wistful door to my heart & found your poem frayed hidden away, containing your words of love from long ago fading lost in time, & i remembered with a smile when i was your muse you were my poetry, then i tucked your poem away saved for another rainy day. #vss365 #time #poetry #poem

birdsong swaying in time the cat’s tail #vss365 #HaikuSaturday #haiku
