Of several wishful years on earth,
From the huge belly of a woman
A baby was born...
----x----
Of what was a little seed in the core
Of a lusty delectable fruit,
Became a tree...
----x----
In the heart of Gods
A fire burns,
Seeding a million suns...
----x----
From the empathy of a cruel man
A child was born,
He thus ruled the land!
You have a wonderful way with words. The 'rolling' haiku tell a complete story ub such a classical way. Admire it very much - and admire your comments, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you hamish... love reading your blog...
DeleteAh, a rolling haiku...I just called them series :)
ReplyDeleteI try to be positive. Yet history often has shadows and dark twists.
I like your illustration and the little ladybug hiding in the plant or is that a seed?
That is a ladybug... the plant caught my attention due to its snake like look.. really queer... saw it only once in quite abundance tho in the mountains of shimla...
