Haiku on a flower soul....


Only if I can
write a haiku


two lines on your two beautiful delicate wings
with the movement of my shivering breaths
or whisper them in your flower soul
and then see you flutter away


O butterfly
The rainbow in your wings
unfolds a song in the distant almond orchards… white almond flowers near the monastery


your every flight seems to me
the search for that illusive third haiku line


to distill the nectar of myriad hues into one essence
