Hello my friends, I have been missing in action for the past three (3) days and I missed you guys. I was not able to post my Haiku based on Birth and Hummingbird due to power cut in the part of Accra, where I live. The lights came on only yesterday around 7.00 pm and by then I was too tired and bored to do anything meaningful. So I am combining the prompt for Day Twenty-Four (24) of September Haiku Heights Challenge, Paradox with the others. Please, humour me.
(1) Paradox
The streams hiss and kiss
Back and forth, over the rocks
Paradox of love
(2) Hummingbird
English: Hummingbird aerodynamics of flight (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
As the winds fly south
So does the sleek hummingbird
On a freedom quest
(3) Birth
Screams of joyous pain
Ease me into a sweet world
I debut in style
