I’ve decided to take part in today’s “Word Of The Day Challenge“, and the word is “King“. I, being me, opt for a haiku.
high above us all
king’s exercise their power
bird’s indifference
A Haiku Response To The Word Of The Day Challenge: King
Category: Daily Haiku
I adore the simplicity, as well as the challenge of Haiku. The constraints focus my mind, seeking out the essence of the moment, feeling, notion, distilling it to brilliant singularity.
My goal: to post at least one haiku a day.
Tonight’s Haiku: Thursday, May 7, 2020
the glories of spring
flowers singing with boldness
swallows harmonize
The Mantis & The Murder Hornet: A Haiku
the praying mantis
facing down murder hornets
an ominous name
Haiku: May 6, 2020
though the rain has stopped
the ominous clouds stare down
birds oblivious
A Monday Morning Haiku
sunlight pushing in
another day comes to life
my eyes resisting
Tonight’s Haiku: May 3, 2020
WITHIN THIS COLD RAIN
DROPLETS DIVING OFF FLOWERS
THE CROW LAUGHS WITH ME
Today’s Haiku : May 2, 2020
walking this evening
getting to see such beauty
life in quarantine
A Photo Inspired Haiku
joyful floral scents
moments of urban beauty soon,
war’s horrors rise
I wrote this haiku after seeing the post below. Such a lovely photo coming a breath before the horror of World War I.

​in the light: judgment
in the darkness: acceptance.
moonlight through the clouds
