Haiku Poetry Quotes

“dance
my friend
until it's done

busted haiku are my attempt
to poke holes in reality's wallpaper...
they come unbidden in brief
flashes at unappointed times...
they are not memories,
rather a separate way of seeing

forget what you know

used enlightenment
as-is
needs work

no clock ticks
true time

first crocus pokes winter in the ass

loves me not
she loves me
i quit while ahead

god is blind

tiny spider
i too hang in vastness

first loves
her hand and mine”
― John Coulton Waugh, busted haiku

“Butterfly alights,
whispers to the firefly,
"Night's canvas awaits."

Firefly twinkles,
responds with soft luminescence,
"We'll paint it with light."

Butterfly flutters,
"Your glow guides through the shadows,
our nocturnal flight."

Firefly replies,
"In the darkness, we unite,
Nature's lanterns bright."

Together they dance,
wings and sparks raveling.
A symphony of night.”

“Butterfly and bee,
amidst blossoms, dance with glee.
In nature's symphony.

Butterfly's flutter,
Bee sips from a blossom's heart,
Nature's silent tale.

Petals cradle dreams,
Bee hums, weaving life's stories,
Harmony unveiled.

Delicate wings touch,
Nature whispers resilience,
A nuanced ballet.

In the dance of blooms,
A symphony of co-existence,
Lessons quietly shared.”
― Monika Ajay Kaul
