Haiku What?

fell-to-earth.jpg
Of all God's creatures
One plummeted so wingless
As to be alone.

Alone she struggles
My heart yearns to say, come here,
I will scratch your back

forgetting her heights
living in the turbulence
all drag and no lift

Jonathan Logan:

With tender touch
And thoughts only of mercy
Comes San Gabriel

Terwiliger:

once nature's beauty
now a lampoon of herself
spoiled for fashion's sake

once the craft of God
every effort to "improve"
only took away

lady icarus
tricked to soar above the sky
set up for a fall


Take each for itself, or together as one.

GarandFan:

A comb, a comb
my blouse
for a comb.

Anonymous:

GarandFan. :) Made me laugh.

For some reason, the comment form forgot my info and I didn't notice. The above Anon was me.

Nice one, G.

Thomas Cox:

ancient winter thaws
impatient fledgling ventures
chill lingers, frustrates

Terwiliger:

Nice one, Thomas.

summer turns to fall
too soon winter renders all
"could have been"...too late
