Haiku Heights
DAY 29
Friendship
i gave up on it
but i found it in you i
thank you for friendship
we are more than friends
we are more than everything
i am keeping you
when times are tres tough
i think of you and i know
you are on my side
i have never known
support like this before it
comes as quite a shock
it is autumn now
a season to be happy
i found you at last
DAY 28
sometimes i get a
few moments of clarity
then it disappears
emotions confuse
hard to put thoughts together
with sharp clarity
the search must go on
for clarity and the truth
a journey of hope
clarity hits hard
the puzzle falls into place
we do not like it
DAY 27
temptation is scarce
when one is too discerning
the fall is harder
of such magnitude
the volcanic eruption
spews for days and days
-------------------------
sometimes temptation
is worth the consequences
passionfruit peach pie
-------------------------
i would go to hell
for you but God is so mean
he keeps you away
--------------------------
i love temptation
it challenges my bold strength
ha, non existent
--------------------------
weakness is divine
succumbing to it is great
and then you suffer
remorse and regret
set in and you wish and wish
you had not yielded
to its siren call
the sun ray has receded
it is deep dark black
----------------------------
wrestling that angel
is always so difficult
it's bigger than me

heavy message here ~ creatively written ~ ^_^
ReplyDeleteYeah...cool man!heavyyyyyy!Are you an Amirkin:)
ReplyDeleteHa..there goes the readership!
There is a lot of truth in this series of haiku. I especially like the image of wrestling the angel. No white gossamer wings on that angel, I suspect. I see the darker specter of a fallen angel.
ReplyDeletesometimes we don't like the clarity ~ great haiku ~ enjoy the weekend ~thanks, namaste, ^_^
ReplyDeleteWrestling with one's Guardian Angel is not recommended. They are persistent and on a 'Payment by Results' salary!
ReplyDeleteDay 27: You played with temptation every which way!
ReplyDeleteSniffing Temptation
Very lovely verses..I specially like the tempting peach pie....yes, remorse comes in after we have yielded...great emotional write ~
ReplyDeleteSometimes the vision after clarity is not likeable.. true..! But right all the same! :) Well done..

Rallen,
ReplyDeleteClarity - We seek clarity and demand clarity. But when it clears up we find it too testing. Familiar situation that I can relate to myself!
Temptation - Yes, not easy to counter temptation. One gets rounded eating too much for one, and many others as you have brilliantly shown.

Day 28: Clarity is the proverbial double-edged sword: We long for it, but when we get it, we're not sure we want it after all!
ReplyDeleteSeeking Clarity—and Shadows
Day 28: Clarity is often elusive, and when found, not aways welcome. Well done.
ReplyDeleteDay 29: Frienship is a wonderful choice. Your haiku speaks of a friendship very worth protecting and honoring.
Tis indeed PattiKen!
ReplyDeleteGreat pieces here. I particularly like the friendship one.
ReplyDeleteFriendships worth keeping are rare. Cherish your rarity.

Boy am I embarrassed about day 29. Turned out to be a complete mirage..wishful thinking searching for an oasis in the desert..I am a very poor judge of character,gullible trusting and easily fooled..Criiiiiiiiinge!
