In scent’s memory
Written by dark fate
I slithered back home
Hanging tree now lit
Victim of the ploy
Of innocence lost
The death of her dreams
Now ready to dry
Wet eyes follow stars
In branches of light
Germs in each corner
The sea progresses
Heads covered in fuzz
Symbol of demise
Setting boundary
A flag flying high
The ticks clung on hard
Quiet times restored
The soul sits so still
The way of the breath
A goodbye to royalty
Music flooded head
Pray fall into heart
Wet grass tickled feet
The dust had settled
Trace of red teardrops
Prince of Peace anew
Humans united
The waters flowed calm
A thousand answers
All rage now vanquished
Words interrupted
Multiverse exhales
My heart hummed wild songs
Multiverse forming
My chest blazed alight
The lotus balanced
Initiation settled
In transformation
A heron looked on
Recreating Life
Catch me when I fall
Solid ground denied
I am all though none
Toward river bank
Around shape of things
In love we gathered
The river racing
Our future is bright
Ocean greets me kin
Eye gathered lilies
Slow fall drops of rain
Crows invade my sight
Do you hear me now?
The monsoon relief
Into heaven’s frame
Morning optimism
Lady who fainted
The weightless measure of things
Seagulls Homecoming
Rosso di Cuore / The carmine of Heart / Le pourpre du Coeur
A play of the tides
Like milk and honey
Conflagration of Senses
Unruly minor
A form of chaos
As spring makes its way
To where I will bloom
I fall through the cracks
Man and sun conspired
Reinvented spring
Writing Neverland
Trinity within my Blues
Set against moonfall
Life sprouts from passing
The untarnished Twelve
Sing o Birds
The view loses charm
Dark Matter’s ink diluted – (A series of Tanka with a concluding Haiku or Senryu as one wishes to see it)
Broken memories my staff – (An Alexandrin with a concluding Haiku)
Shaking skies ink black
A roadmap to Bliss
A Winter to remember
Perhaps one Winter
Winter’s promises وعود الشتاء
Replicating cells
In the silence of my Heart
Fear Ego’s highest Level
Jerusalem’s lost Ark wind
Life wide open change
Now that the trail has gone cold
Healing lines my Heart
I died yesterday
We need the mortar
Infinite dams Breed
Stillness in Tremors
Gravity propelled
The Lisping set Flames
When the shift cause quakes
I, flying Phoenix
Stairway to the Skies
Seeing You through I
I Am that I Am
Aurora Borealis
Chronos my brother
Jubilatory
Dance with me Lover
Mother forsakes us Never
Forgive me Father
Yellow Sunflower
Other poles shifted
Dynamics of Love
My slender Oak Tree
What I love about her feet
Ocean of Despair
The River of Time
You can only see with Heart
Frills for our Future
Your lips on my skin
Be my rising Star
In trail of Feathers
Dancing to the winds
Breath of the Divine
Closing Heartpath Core
Ten was the number
Frost bites my Heart’s Lace
Synchronicities unfold
So Close yet so Far
In Nomine Patris – Not!
The falling leaves smile
In Memoriam Aeternum
In the Peak of the Darkness
Where all is Balance
Dominions to come
You who know my Heart
I speak from within Future
Rhapsody of Souls
As Queen of the Sun
Pathways to Heaven
Return to Simplicity
Harrowing will be thy shame
In Circles of Time
Keep safe Messenger
The touch of your hand
Building a New World
A New World awaits
Infinite Expansion starts
No more you nor I
Reaching a place of stillness
Drunk on loving Ecstasy
Walk with me a thousand years
Lady of shadows
Three, three like a tree
Night engulf me like satin
Alternate realities
Should I dance with you?
Your touch my soul soothed
Swaying to the Times
Silence of the Heart
Waking within the Heartpath
In my dreams I fly
Break through the Heartpath
Ecstatic togetherness
The cracks in the wall
Reaching Heart Stillness
Become Love my Love
Internal workings
Listen to the Angels speak
My spirit dances
Love letters from Netherworld
The Elements raged
The Illusion of your Face
زجاج الدموع
This Oracle in my Heart
Authenticity
Walking in Dreamland
I heard Spirit’s Heart
Love was only chance
Butterflies died first
Those sinuous lines
Experimental
In Peace with the Flames
Only Love makes Perfect Sense
Come into my Life
I choose to colour my Heart
You live deep in me
Listen to my Heart
Winding down the clocks
As the Water flows
Control Halt Delete
The Loss of what is not there
The unbearable Knowledge
Love Minimalism
The bread of Mercy
Run through the light maze
Getting the Tune right
I will bear the Ring
This spirit in me
Love the greatest choice
Tomorrow will rise سيشرق الغد
Open your eyes now Adam
Through the veil of dark despair
Come Age of the Heart Wisdom
لموضوع الحب
The Subject of Love
A World of Magic
Love without limits
Let me be your Gipsy Love
The Time will never come back
Your emblem of Love
Living in split worlds
All winds are howling (Translation of Arabic haïkus called رياح تعوي )
رياح تعوي
Of perhaps and of maybes
Perhaps loving is leaving
Beyond Connection
Happily ever laughter
Back into Jerusalem
Dance me to the End
A day will soon come (Translation of “Il viendra le jour”)
Il viendra le jour
Resta nel mio cuore
May you end all sanity
Practising still life
This incessant hide and seek
Are we done hiding?
I will call your name
This essence of you
Renew my essence
Merging is Emerging One
Flawless and silent
Will you miss me when I’m gone?
Blood, this flow in me
What is this Madness?
Every time I doubt
This empty room without you
قوة غرامك / The power of your love
The fabric of dreams
Fleetingly daytime joined in
When you and I sleep
إشتد البرد
As the pace quickened it stilled
متى تجيؤ؟
The last one standing
The red writhing hood
Eternity’s flights
Across Time’s Oceans
Dance into the Wild
Worldly ties can knot
Life? It flows tireless!
The battles in me
A million kisses
Can Earthly love heal?
I yearn to go Home
Ecstasy of You
Your presence in your absence
When we think it right
In mutual growth
The foghorn blows not
I am All and None
End in beginning
مثل الإشتعال
Dying within me / Mourant en mon être
Breaking the dark waves
Fondersi in te
Burn it in the cold
Angels don’t walk Earth
The blurred lines of me
Where evil and good didn’t roam
Tolerance
Acceptance
Solitude
Writing
Silence
Yearning
Upheaval
Synchronicity
Significance
Revolution
Promise
Insight
Faith
Evolution
Peace
Purity
Bliss
Transcendence
Transformation
Healing
Replenishment
Al Tuo tocco
Lightning
Mercy
All the promises
Home

Goodbye
Eye wept for you, I?
Pulse
Sky blush
Time passing flowed still
Electricity
Grounding
As a closing, I would like to share with you that the Haiku poetry I write is mainly the classical Haiku form which follows the 5-7-5 rule in writing every stanza with some exceptions using the shorter version of 3-5-3 starting December 22, 2015
Initially I always thought that what I wrote in this format was only considered Haiku before a fellow blogger (FT Ledrew) alerted me to the fact that Haïkus only mentioned nature and that anything which included human emotions was rather called Senryu so I created a new section called Senryu. Upon further research on the web though I realised that the difference was not so clear-cut and that poems including human emotions could still be called a Haiku. Indeed, when there is a mix between references to nature and to human foibles, the poem could well be a Senryu and a Haiku. For more information on this topic I find fascinating please see http://startag.tripod.com/HkSenDiff.html
http://dversepoets.com/2011/10/06/formforall-haiku-and-senryu/
Probably most of the above would rather be considered Senryu but I have left them here for now and have decided that, for future poems, even if there is reference to both human and mother nature, I would include it as a Haiku if it had a season reference as well as also put it Under Senryu.
Besides some poems I write have one or more Haikus within them as well as one or more Senryus. I hope you enjoy the above.
