Colour my words, world
Light or dark, all caged in its tunes
Tongues lash out in cacophony

Set - Reprised (Haiku #18)

The eve sets the stage
For amber turning to red
In the drink smothered

Head out of the Sand (Haiku #19)

Fear makes of all men
Deaf to pain that surrounds them
Listen! humanity calls

Hops the white rabbit
In meadows where foxes lay
from life, seizing its due

Rose (Haiku #21)

Heady is its scent
this here Bulgarian rose
Dazed men walk drowning

You who left me in
this here storms of your making
Dead yet or shall I bury?

Light (Haiku #15)

The lamp flickers as
sun it rises, shadows scurry
to alleys hidden

Seeing a distant glow
Like vine I shall now clamber
hoping warmth not fire

In secret valleys, they grow
The world it withers

spring she's here in its warm grace
cold my heart frozen

Once again I am
back here to ask you tell me
Is this my life now
