HAIKU
Winter’s first fist
Shakes and whisper loudly
Spring Saturday
Florida ears
Unaccustomed to cover
Chilled stingers
Strawberry farmers
No sleep for you tonight
Looming frost
Iced crayons
Turn sky deep gray
Ocean’s warmth
Shakes and whisper loudly
Spring Saturday
Florida ears
Unaccustomed to cover
Chilled stingers
Strawberry farmers
No sleep for you tonight
Looming frost
Iced crayons
Turn sky deep gray
Ocean’s warmth

I love the iced crayons image
Yes, old school haiku
When I read most haiku they succeed
in using the sylables but fail to have two seperate thoughts
then turn
to unite them in a thought
and fail to use the season and references to aged worn rusty things
Haiku is high art to me
which I have failed at many times..but most people don't notice..they see the sylables and like it....oh to learn the real art of haiku
your life sounds like you have experienced a lot of other cultures..good for you
hope to visit here more often
