Today’s One-Word Challenge (by Fandango) prompt is “energize”. This one might be more of a senryu than a haiku, but in today’s vernacular, “haiku” is often referred to as the 17 syllable poems in the 3 lines (5-7-5), so, here we are.
Tea is my preferred way to caffeinate, though I’m fond of coffee, too. A cup of tea on my couch, ideally with a book: a delightful way to start the day.
seeking to energize within the morning darkness slowly sipping tea

the glories of spring
time flowing over petals
memories calling

walking in sunlight
abundant cherry blossoms
beyond morning rains

walking in the sun
the grace of flowers fills me
with delightful joy

underneath the rain
signs of spring bursting forwards
no one else walking

Bubbles!
upon the spring breeze
joyful squeals of childhood
laden with pure grace

springtime's grace
gentle breeze's motion
waiting for the rain
no pathos is felt by the birds upon the wind or by spring's flowers
The haiku above is my response to today’s Word of the Day Challenge. Today’s word: pathos.
