Autumn, happiness, laughter, Nature, summer, Sunflower

Done for Gilly and a A Prompt Each Day. Prompt 67. Inspired by the following words and photo:

suns

Laughter

streaming from the clouds

yellow suns of happiness

dizzying with grace

fading echoes of summer

teasing the scent of Autumn

Carpe Diem Haiku Prompt: Sunflower

Nightingale, Religion, Rough Sea, Sunflower

These days, due to so many unforeseen issues coming up in my life, I haven’t been blogging as much as I’d  have loved to. I’m doing my best to catch up with my mails as well and I therefore plead with all my friends to please bear with me. I’ve missed about three or so of the Carpe Diem Haiku prompts so I’m doing them together with today’s, Sunflower.

(1) Sunflower

A rain-kissed garden

Sunflowers are in full bloom

They gladden my heart

(2) Nightingale

Whispers of her voice

Plays rhapsodies in my heart

My nightingale sings

(3) Rough Sea

Dark waves smash my heart

He threatens to maroon me

I am on rough sea

(4) Religion

Opium to my soul

His Divine words make me whole

Forever raptured
