FOOD HAIKU POEMS

Only green salad
Can't stand it, makes me feel sad
Fasting then is bad.

Eat fruits everyday
To the loo an easy way
Drives the doctor away.

Strawberries are sweet
But ice cream is the best treat
Ate in bed, stained sheet.

Remember don't cry
I'll bake fruit and chicken pie
Before sunset's goodbye.

Nature Haiku 5.7.5.

~~~~~

a bird sang sweetly
despite the city chaos
nature will survive

~~~~~

a single raindrop
disturbed the glistening pond
then reflections danced

~~~~~

a sudden shower
the adults ran for shelter
children love puddles

~~~~~

War Haiku - another take

Quiet in trenches
Orders followed, carnage left
Shadows of the dead

In sunflower field
An abandoned violin
Refugees fleeing

Born for the combat
Blasts of gun fire, fierce ambush
Tin soldiers at war

Music Haiku

walking in Salzburg
Wolfgang Amadè Mozart
distant violin

an old piano
broken keys and tangled wire
good wine, sweet music

War Haiku

Buffalo soldiers
Apache feathered spirits
war within a breath

Johnson and Nixon
Kissinger on my TV
smoke over Da Nang

Chinese raid Taiwan
UN emergency meet
calm before the storm

Ocean’s haiku challenge-2

Lifted by a breeze
Dreams transform into clouds
Sparkling drops return

No air left to breathe
Flowing sky following you
Vacuum for me

Locked in the closet
The skeleton felt confined
Those dirty secrets

The night was dragging
Nightmares kept coming back
Rooster did not care

HAIKU FOR YOU (with bonus feature of author's interpretation) - "What do ghost see in a mirror?"

"What do ghosts see in a mirror?"

Oak's underbelly.
where dreams appeal naturally
mom slipped from the crypt.


Oak's underbelly... (in the shade of an oak tree on a sunny lazy day)

where dreams appeal naturally...(be easy to fall asleep)

mom slipped from the crypt...(dreamt a lot about my mom right after she passed but she didn't know she was dead)

Haiku 3

a servant of salt
she docks on the old jetty
timbers in the sun

topaz delights me
sets the rhythm of the night
to the chase I'm born

Aristotle's virtues
a field of mountainside flowers
making of a man

OZ …..Haiku Challenge

The stillness of cloud
A breathless silence of wind
Warmth of winter sun


A moth in night light
A gecko’s dinner tonight
Through the window pane

Lazy are the days
Awaiting the suns warm rays
Upon gazebo
