Dew drops of the dawn.




Sings old nightingale
Ancient myth shines through darkness
Truth in melody
~
Bosom of the loved
True feelings rush to form tears
Smiles hidden beneath
~
Dew drops of the dawn
Crystal lumps of happiness
Truly shapes your day


Here is my attempt to be more true to the Haiku rules as suggested by LEO. I appreciate his effort in helping us truly understand the concept behind this beautiful form of poetry. The three set of haiku today are not a chain, but only related through the concept of 'TRUE'. Expecting your true feedbacks. That will be much appreciated! :)

This Haiku is written for the Haiku Heights. The prompt for the week is 'TRUE'.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Longing luscious hair
Dreaming the beautiful life
Make peace with the Dove

  2. A nice improvement in your haiku writing ~ A single image to write about is great like the bosom of the beloved and dew drops of dawn ~ What would really work too is too avoid using sweeping words like happiness and truth ~ Use instead a vivid image to show an example of it, and contrast or complement it in the third line like this:

    Dew drops of the dawn
    crystals soft on vase of blooms,
    salt on native tongue

    Native tongue is used to denote being true to oneself ~ Hope you don't mind my heartfelt feedback ~
