Haikus

Solace reigns completeThe mosquito’s steely buzz.A dart, twist, and turn. Go somewhere. Do what?Silly! Time’s an invention.Everthing is here.

The poor little cheque!Feted by banks and people.Small harmless paper. The large Banyan tree‘Protects’ the shrub with it’s shade.But the shrub withers.

Fire licks the ice.The Zen master meets VoltaireOpposites Entwirl. Disguised is the threat.If we see not binding bonds,Though light, they hold fast.

The Frog in waterWhich slowly started boiling.Will it jump or not? Time is mine to waste,To see the curtains flyingAll there is to it.

Love ain’t a potionto rescue you from the world.But to drown in it. Love can’t but be drawnfrom a well already full.The puppy gamboles.

Life on the one handAll the dead on the otherWhich is real for you? The cold frost grudgingthe rosebud’s soft innocencewill choke and wither. As weeds throttle plants,the child, society moulds.Abomination.

Solitary calmShe showers gentle SilverThe queen of the night. The world whizzing pastSilent buzz of the cycleTime is suspended

Standing from afarPain will not be understood.I’m no statistic. Throes shine so strongly,that benevelonce shows not.But it’s who we are.

The regret of loss Apprehensive of the new This cycle is growth Creation and Risk may never part. To stagnate is to be secure.

To bend or to breakIs the choice in the reed’s hands?The gust of wind comes. Expediency.Does the intention forgive?Cherished notions fall.
