Theme: Serendipity, missed glances, quiet longing Train window fogged soft— her smile reflected in glass. I missed the next stop. A kite caught mid-flight, she held the string, unaware— my heart tangled there. Rain on cobblestones, her laughter echoed backward— I turned too slowly.

"Whispers Before the First Touch"
Theme: Serendipity, missed glances, quiet longing Train window fogged soft— her smile reflected in glass. I missed the next stop. A kite caught mid-flight, she held the string, unaware— my heart tangled there. Rain on cobblestones, her laughter echoed backward— I turned too slowly.
I do like Haiku poetry,I don't always get the format right, but I'm generally happy with my creations, after all poetry is and should be fun... not perfection.
