Haikus - Hello Poetry

Ayn

Bench

Listening to cows
and the cars, far below me.
This bench's a safe spot.

I call upon thee, poetic license! Make my bench is -> bench's contraction legal!

Ayn

Apparently...

Lets say the case that
"you are what you eat" is true...
I'm a cannibal.

No, I am not a cannibal.
Note to self: clean laptop screen at some point... ugh its gross.

Hanukkah '19 ( Haiku )

Eight evenings

Defiant towards the dark

Shall stay free

Dedicated to those celebrating Hanukkah. May you be blessed and enjoy the holiday.

Silence

silence of your eyes
riot of colours in the
insidious dyes

Would You Rather

The bite of the cold
(Outside)
Is nothing compared to this
(your) Suffocating warmth
(I can’t stand it)

laughter through tears

4 am, tight hugs
whispered words, hand on cheek, and
your smile means all

Haiku

My heart spilled open
hoping the news wasn't true-
too little, too late.
