Sunlight shines On dark curls dripping Tears on grass Harsh lights glare On soft voice choking False words true Night beckons To man in mirror Who am I? Wind whispers To soul in jungle Fear kills Close your eyes Take a breath, and jump Water's nice Sentinels Always had someone A partner A Sentinel Always has someone A partner |
Note: A haiku usually has three lines, of 5, 7 and 5 syllables respectively, but these consist of lines of 3, 5 and 3 syllables, with some irregularites. IMO, the shorter format better reflects the terseness inherent in Japanese haiku.
