Inside Voice-3 Haikus

*Your eyes are too wide.

You wonder too much, my dear.

Conformity is best.*

 

Why not break the mold?

I will live outside the box:

A force of new things!

 

*No, my child, no...

Voice low and your mind silent.

Then they will like you.*

With Easter weekend happening, I got a few days behind on my National Poetry Month project. In order to catch up, I wrote 3 haiku for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th. These are some of my first haikus.
