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

somber grey masses
thunder and lightning rolled
quietening the birds

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

Haiku/Senryu Compilation.

Bird Table ... Haiku

Icy lacy frost
blankets Holly bush and tree,
Graces berry feast.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Sky Art ... Haiku

Crimson wisps blood-stain
azure's fading sky to paint
dusk's art at sunset.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Tall Order ... Haiku

Legs all sprawled askew.
Yards of neck enmeshed in thorn.
Delicate giraffe.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Despair ... Senryu

Anguish, held too long.
Wracking sobs and flowing tears.
Eyes implore. Arms fall.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Today ... Senryu

Baby born today.
Text said: "Girl, black hair. All well!"
Niece for me to love.

Know way

I once knew you
Without a clue
You know I knew about the few
Those you hurt around and through the years
Just because they knew your foolish fears
You whom I once knew

flying forward and backward
sipping sweet nectar

A King Unprotected

Rook sits, forgotten

Bishop sweeps to capture queen

Knight seals trap. Checkmate.

~Haiku~ Oceanic

Moon lit tide rolls in
Cresting beached sand, drifts back in place
To depth where it began

Haiku

Field of daffodils
brazen yellow, sun kissed
petals, brightly greet

The dawn of the day
magically the sun rises
flooding with colour

Gently the stems quake
as caught by the breeze they shake
quiver in its wake

Matching yellow bird
soars over the display of beauty
adding its sweet notes

A vision of bliss
such a simple little thing
the joy of nature
