Inspired by the prompt at Poets and Storytellers to go micro . . .
The night bird
rustles
midst the snow-burdened branches
of his hidden home.
Smog colored sunrise
of busy men—rich cerise
for their artless ways.
On the snow fog morn
white lights dance around the nest
of winter’s cardinal.
A traditional Japanese form, haiku is a three-line poem written in a 5/7/5 syllable count, usually with a focus on nature. Thanks, Rosemary, for including the other forms of micro poetry in the prompt. Less is often more!
