Ailill commented on Wanda's blog post Imperfection (Haiku)"interesting, how you weave several haikus together to make a story.. You might be interested in trying a shadorma.. Google it.. It has more syllable count and more lines.. it might work better for what you are trying to achieve.. "

Spark in the Flame

Oh Avatar, image of a fallen star,
you are the spark that starts the flash
of the flame, a blaze compelling fire
into the spell of burning desire,
stoking smoke into a swirling spiral,
whirling this way and that, snaking along
well-worn paths, riding on a breeze
over hill and vale, bearing the…

Losing Man's Blues
Like a leaf blowing in the wind,
been up and down this dusty trail
here to there, back here again,
my reckless laid plans on the rail.
I used to act like a crown jewel,
not knowing this was high stakes poker,
but life’s cruel, caught being a fool,
my deck stacked full of jokers.
Head still sizzling from the trial,
was the fault yours, maybe mine,
I was the one who got nailed,
doing time in cell number 9.
My heart can’t… Continue

This Wild Sea
On this wild sea, nothing’s stable,
tossed which ever way the wind blows.
Behind me, becoming aware
of the signs. They are everywhere,
around me. This life, a struggle,
in these lines rhyming the turmoil.
Confessing, no more denial.
Tomorrow’s fears I must bear,
on this wild sea.
Like waves, illusions come and go,
up, down, making a new cycle,
whirling round. Change is in the air
that I breathe. I shall not… Continue

Victoria Curtin said… - Thank you for your comment on "A Time for Now". Your interpretation is on the button. It's about the comfort of being able to block out yesterday and tomorrow, and live in the now...and be very aware of the now... Thanks Aillill :o)
