Haiku-(reblog)

First days of Spring

tears fall from brown eyes

as rain pours from the heavens.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! ~ ‘A Thousand Years’ + Haiku

Haiku:

Eyes meet and lock across the distance

a connection stronger than time

found at last, fated lovers come together.

~ Celeste ~

Lyrics to song:

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone?
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehowOne step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What’s standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

Haiku

Bodies entwined, raptured in ardent bliss

hearts beating frantically as one

the sound of two worlds colliding.

Green Man + Haiku

An awesome song, from one of my favorite bands. The lyrics are hauntingly beautiful, and I have added them below the video. I know this band may not be everyone’s cup of tea, indeed it is a minority….but I find they suit a secret part of me well, and their music is unique, speaking to me on an honest and human level. Actually, I have written a handful of poems while playing them in the background, if you can believe that. :)   If it’s not to your liking, cool. If it is, very good. But I think we all agree, the lyrical verse is quite stunning.

I also wrote a haiku, which was inspired by this song. Enjoy.

Haiku:

Standing at the precipice my eyes behold

sky shedding the cloak of twilight

as dawn’s first rays touch the horizon.

Spring won’t come, the need of strife
To struggle to be freed from hard ground
The evening mists that creep and crawl
Will drench in the dew and so drown
I’m the green man
The green man

Sol in prime sweet summertime
Cast shadows of doubt on my face
A midday sun, its caustic hues
Refracting within the still lake

Autumn in her flaming dress
Of orange, brown, gold fallen leaves
My mistress of the frigid night
I worship pray to on my knees
Winter’s breath of filthy snow
Befrosted paths to the unknown
Have my lips turned true purple
Life is coming to an end
So says me, me wiccan friend
Nature coming full circle
I’m the green man

Winter’s breath of filthy snow
Befrosted paths to the unknown
Have my lips turned true purple
Life is coming to an end
So says me, me wiccan friend
Nature coming full circle
I’m the green man
The green man

GORGEOUS!

Haiku

Rosy colors pierce the early morning’s dawn

opening my window for a closer look

the birds’ happy songs greet my ears.

Haiku

Sweet as honey and smooth as silk

soft lips whisper the words

that envelope mine in velvet caresses.

Haiku

Sunlight on sheets tangled around four legs

soft giggles and nipping on earlobes

smiling memories of the night before.

Haiku

Heavy lids awaken to a sunny room

stretching, I stir from a peaceful slumber

smiling as bacon and coffee greet my nose.

Haiku

Alone in the night

haunted by your memory

thoughts of you steal my breath away.

Haiku

Flying high through the sky

misty clouds tickle my face

I land and dance on the moon.

Haiku

A walk through the tranquil wood

my soul in silent contemplation

answered by the cooing of an owl.

Haiku

All alone, only angels see me

pouring out my heart through dance

as I twirl under the full moon.

Haiku

In arid and dreamy spaces I wait,

longingly, quietly, for your white horse

to find me and bring me home.

Haiku

Lost in the fire of your warrior eyes

the ground shifts beneath my feet

as you claim my heart and soul.

Haiku

Exploding lights inside my mind

splintered visions of peaceful pastures

as you piece together my broken dreams.
