Haiku for Tuesday rain

3 of 7 in ‘The Syllabic series 22’ from Jemverse

There is sun today
or at very least promise
amidst the grey cloud

Tri-Haiku XXXVIII (Friday)

And so to Friday
for a switch-off come lunchtime
into the weekend

And breathe deep, relax
soak up the fact that this is
deliciously mine

And so it will be
to use wisely and enjoy
pending the new week

Best Thursday Haiku

And here for Thursday
three lines to herald a day
and wish it the best

Tri-haiku XXXVII (Essence)

Yesterday it rained
quite persistently throughout
so inside we stayed

Today though it's dry
and the birds are singing sweet
songs about the day

So outside we'll go
to breathe in the world around
and feel its essence

There's something about
writing a haiku each day
that always inspires

Life moves ever on
Moments captured and cherished
Forging memories

Clever use of words
in three simple lines of verse
Just enough sometimes

Four

I'll write a haiku
most days to capture what life
shows me of itself

Three

Anticipating
quietness, the solitude
of morning greets me

Two

A poem in hand
has worth beyond measure
for clarity of mind

One

Conversing unheard
yet the sound is a comfort
Warming like coffee

Tri-haiku XXXVI (Warmth of weekends)

The warmth of weekends
cosy from winter blankets
bodes well to the week

So with high spirits
Monday comes with gusto here
cocooned I embrace

And the warm embers
envelope and protect me
as the week proceeds

Tri-haiku XXXV (the sun, hooray)

And here for Sunday
the sun still has its hat on
Hip, hip, hip hooray

Golden for autumn
it still shines yellow and warm
Hip, hip, hip hooray

Shining still brightly
it stays and it continues
Hip, hip, hip hooray

HAIKU: SHE SMILES WITH HER EYES

By Charles Robert Lindholm

She Smiles With Her Eyes

Haiku – cathartic

I write cathartic
Words as liquid pouring here
onto this lake's page

Tri-haiku XXXIV (the familiar)

The familiar
just like a comfort blanket
all uniquely mine

Something I cling to
to remind me that today
everything is peace

And I breathe easy
with familiarity
born of pure content

Thursday Haiku

Dripping from my pen
my Thursday haiku gathers
form and satisfies

Life-words-haiku

Sometimes a haiku
Gives all the words that I need
to make life complete

Sunday Haiku

A Sunday Haiku
in seventeen syllables
The right thing to do

Tri-haiku XXXIII (Heaven)

Afternoon sunshine
in June, deliciously hot
I am in heaven

But it is a place
on earth, as Belinda said
and she was quite right

Nowhere else I would
further be this afternoon
than right here right now

Haiku

that lofty smile

insecurities facade

you wear it so well
