with blow of wind’s might-
even the sun seems to sway
fire streaks on sky
~
lifting a lone leaf-
the wind reaches for the sky
grey clouds come alive
~
raucous of green leaves-
a poet sits underneath
plucking unkempt grass
.
charming summer clouds
as the endless night goes on-
star songs of the flute
.

crescent moon-
I desire to melt
into the night
~
the ladle of dreams-
a desire urges me to hang
by the arms of night
~
the twinkle of eyes-
a spectator there glimpses
as I hug the wind
.

one with the rose stem
prickly thorns

And that comes out to be my 100th post on this blog.
brightness of this morn-
collecting seeds that didn’t grow
I’m awed by stillness
~
touched by a warmth-
all these colors seem at awe
of the heat-giver

For Carpe Diem # 435.
evanescent eve-
I stand on my toes to see
the blood sun drowning
~
amid cloud vapors-
the sun rays that evanesce
with feathers of crows

* For Haiku/Tanka Challenge.
alms for my heart-
the sight of sun at dusk
bathing in crimson
~
words strewn air
oblivious to the world-
a red-beaked parrot
~
skin tingled lilac
hair ruffled by a spring wind
silence in my smile
.
