falling off the bridge
he drowns
in the young night's thighs

  1. Haiku is the hardest poetry to write, I think. The poet must boil it all down to the very few most important words. I've been looking over your site and see that you do this beautifully. I hope you don't mind if I come back.

  2. Karen, you are correct, it takes a while to
    boil down my idea, concept into these haiku.
    I appreciate that you took the time to read
    these haiku and your generous compliment.
    Please Karen, do return, I sincerely look
    foward to reading your thoughts.

  11. Dear Marie! I shall rectify - I think I saw Karen's name instead of yours - grrr.

    Resonant and powerful verse. Haiku is something I haven't mastered, well done.

    Your thought made my hour and I blew you a kiss. Thank you for sharing so sweetly. Do come again, I tend to post once or twice a week and treasure this exchange. Peace,

  13. You have a way with the Haiku, this one sounds wistful but sexy, I guess it's the thighs...

  14. Dear Pinkerbell.

    It's wonderful to read a comment
    from you. I guess the word thigh has a
    way of leaning towards the seductive.

    Thank you.

    Marie
