Carpe Diem, HAIKU, POETRY

A bench is empty

Carpe Diem Special #122, Richard Wright’s 3rd haiku.

I give permission
For this slow spring rain to soak
The violet beds.

children’s laughter
playing in the fresh puddles
trampling the clouds

My TROIKU:

I give permission
for any child to enter
life school of today

For this slow spring rain to soak
every sad story behind
shine a happy day

The violet beds
lack a lavender pillow
Flooding in sunset

My HAIKU:

Spring rolly ground
some girls are playing hopscotch
the bench is empty

spring
