Description
1/3/08mailbox affection
over-filled, love letters'
torrential downpour
2/3/08
it's over
my heart is empty
vacancy
3/3/08
On the way home
we found a yellow feather
”Lots of love, from March.”
4/3/08
fourth day of the month
Who knew these birds could sing
in tune with the wind
5/3/08
deadly sin
clouds in puddles
vanity
6/3/08
embracing
branches intertwine
lovers' thrist
7/3/08
white by black
winter has not passed
yesterday
8/3/08
when you look at me
the stitches holding my heart
come undone
9/3/08
intimidating
blooms burst forth in all colour
passionately
10/3/08
frozen bird
the night is cruel still
vengeful
11/3/08
snowdrops cry
red tears in the sun's
first true rays
12/3/08
contours imprinted
on my tactile memory
fade with time
13/3/08
thirteenth, luck-less day
ripped wrapping, pricked thumb
your present, messed
14/3/08
orange to red
thin yellow-green then blue-gray
ends with midnight black
15/3/08
they broke off chains
for OUR brighter future
sealed it with blood
16/3/08
blindingly bright sky
but the weatherman said "bad"
damn lying forecast
17/3/08
blackbirds spit
curses at me for
whistling back
18/3/08
search phrase:
love poem, modern-day
spring frenzy
19/3/08
forests bud
unviolated
silence
20/3/08
diamonds
roll on tree leaves -
dazzling dew
21/3/08
rising moon
casts vast expanses
in silver
22/3/08
falling sun
sunnyside-up
in the sky
23/3/08
a black stray
closes green eyes getting
sunsoaked
24/3/08
she caught
him staring again
intently
25/3/08
lonely crowds
bloom white flowers
red plum trees
26/3/08
two hearts beat
syncronized to
one ta-dam
27/3/08
blindingly
haloed in sun rays
you arrive
28/3/08
fraying heart
only you can stitch
it anew
29/3/08
pink dyed wings
tow blanket of the
richest black
30/3/08
rain falls hard
drips off roof
down the drain
31/3/08
farewell
is bitterest tears
on tongue

it was a great inspiration, I wanted to include "diamond" in another haiku, but the association line you suggested was much better
I hate it when the forecast tells you the weather and then it's the complete opposite...... :angry:
thanks

Very nice..... Love the shortness of the poem and yet it moves so well.
Have you been inspired lately?
Remember - forest - then trees - then bird in the nest - then moss - then dew in the moss.... Perhaps that will help you!

thanks, I wanted it to be super short
I found some vacation pictures about Sovata, Transylvania and that made me remember those amazing forests and the silence which was actually very noisy
thing have been hectic, I haven't been to anywhere and that's why I am not inspired, I usually write haiku while travelling
that's a good association line, I think I have an idea... I have to think a bit more

the silence that was actually very noisy - poetry even in your comments.
Keep thinking! I am following along.....

I love the way you use color to create vibrant imagery in the 11th and 14th haiku. The latter actually made me think of a colorful piece of fabric or something before I read your artist comments.

I love colours and I try to use them as much as I can... can be a bit over-crowded

I think it works for you.

Wonderful stuff, I especially love the March 8th one, I hope you don't change it because as soon as I read it I thought "Oh my god, that's exactly what happens!"
I think the poet you was hiding, but she's finally blossoming now! Haha kinda cheesy reference to spring 8D

hmm... that gives me some ideas for some future haiku...
alright, then I won't change it... but I still think something is missing...

Great start, keep on writing and don't give up.
I'm surprised you say you're not a poet because you definitely think like one. Your words create some beautiful scenes. Keep it up!

I know what you mean about having trouble with a piece. Often I will be working hard on something and it just won't gel. I am doing a piece right now that is beating me up
I like what you have done with it, in spite of your struggles.
Like how the empty heart has a vacancy. Very clear picture.

thank you for the support
the one with the vacancy is one of my favourites too (that sounded a bit egoistic...

For someone who is "not a poet" these sing remarkably well!
