Haiku to Edit 1

Global Haiku • Millikin University • January 2017

Cold hands
Bright lights
It is the season

 

 

 

playing in the yard
nightfall comes
quickly we go in

 

drizzling rain
in a car
to your unknown future

 

 

 

a house in the woods
darkness engulfs us
fireflies are among us

 

 

gleaming candle
shushed out at days' end
while she contemplates tomorrow

 

 

 

caring and loving parents
still take a picture of their little boy
on his first day of senior year in college

 

as she walks through a small path
the sound of Birds
comes with judgment

 

 

 

out the window—
cried
the little girl



light bell ring
revealing of eyes
Got one!
