I discovered the one deep breath community a few weeks ago. Every week they post a new “prompt” for haiku’s. This week’s prompt is the “faces of humanity.” I hope you enjoy my contributions (and check out those of other participants on the one deep breath page.)
the hangover (a haiku)
you touch me subtle
reminding me with brushes
of night, touch, smell…you
the way you dream (a haiku)
picture your body
held together embracing
awakened slumber
love lost (a haiku)
pierced by the sight of
you in conversation with
some other summer
heat wave (a haiku)
sun burnt sweat blooms on
freckeled sheets desiring
lovers calming touch
