Journey
this shadowy night
be my song
as I journey
on waves rising
I will sing
to your dawn

Joy
3-5-3-3-7-5
cottony
clouds afloat on blues
fluffy whites
seek my praise
and one with the firmament
I croon out this joy

contrasting colours
yet perfectly blending hues
of life’s mismatched words
all creating a concord
of poetic melodies

Done for Recuerda Mi Corazon and also for Carpe Diem prompt, Raindrops. Easter approaches; the rains are letting on over here and these haiku are in honour!
Raindrops
edge of skies
raindrops fall as tears
Easter prelude

raindrops
ticking off the days
to Easter

concerto
of raindrops, singing

Haiku for Recuerda Mi Corazon
During this time of the year, the weather in my country becomes cloudy and moody, with little or no rain but persistent drizzle, light or heavy depending on its whim. Popular culture has it that as this is the festival time of the Ga people of Greater Accra region, this weather (stretching from July through August and early September) brings in lots of fish, particularly herrings to enable the Ga people celebrate their festival, Homowo in style. (the soup accompaniment to the traditional food for the festival is prepared using lots of fish)
Anyway, today, there’s been some sunshine peeping through to dispel the gloom and I tell you, the birds are even happy, chirping louder. 🙂
Melody
sliver of rays
through moody clouds
the birds sing

Day Thirteen (13) of the September Haiku Heights Challenge and the prompt is Symphony. I’ve gone out of the box again, but this time not too out of it, if you consider that my humble offering is actually analogous to the prompt. 🙂 So, without much ado, here we go:
Symphony
Sweet Celestial Choir
Echoes soft chimes in my heart
My soul is nourished
