With only a few days remaining the 2015 April Poem A Day Challenge, this blog should be back to regular programming soon! Thanks for following along as I navigate through National Poetry Month.

Prompt: moment
I.
fallen flowers
float for a moment
morning breeze
II.
clouds roll overhead
gravel crunches
beneath my feet
III.
rainclouds break apart
just in time
for sunset

Prompt: across the sea
Queen Mary’s Garden
I.
June’s first rain
settles in the center
of a white rose
II.
Triton’s fountain
sprinkles the pond
along with the rain
III.
grey clouds loom
over a path covered
with rose petals

Prompt: Shakespearean Words
I. Blush
clouds blush
at the sight
of an early moon
II. Moonbeam
midnight rain
drops catch the glow
of a full moon
II. Radiance
black water
reflects the stars
flickering fire

c.b.w. 2015
I love all of the light that dances through these and flower petals…lovely and for me, your second one captured me…I enjoyed the sensation of sky moving to ground…cool effect! 🙂 Great haiku, CB!

There’s a very good reason why I don’t do these challenges… And if I could remember what it is it might make a good poem 😉 I love these three tryptychs of words.
