My brain hopped around yesterday and today with this prompt. One might think it would be an easy one for an islander, but I was all over the map! All the way to the moon and back, so to speak.

from that distance

one island

islands
hold hands

low tide......
two islands
become one

The last, describes my afternoon yesterday - with my exuberant grandson at the playground near his home.
Today the prompt is "island" at HAIKU HEIGHTS
Such a sweet set... i loved the second one especially! :)
ReplyDeleteMelodious flute notes beckon!
The last one is lovely :-)
ReplyDeleteThe last one speaks to me, since I love exuberant boy! However the third is my favorite. Makes me think that if people just sit and be with each other now and again, the tide will go out and they will touch.
ReplyDeleteI do like the low tide one. Simple and elegantly descriptive.
ReplyDeleteI love your set of haiku. They are all special but the last one is my favourite. I can picture that scene and I smile.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of haiku. Lovely read. I like your new background. Very suitable to haiku.
ReplyDeleteThe last was such a delightful surprise. Very nice set.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I loved 1st & the 3rd the most. "Two islands become one" now that's so lovely :)
ReplyDeleteIslands hold hands...what a lovely picture...none can sweep them away..
ReplyDeleteRS:)
Islands hold hands under the sea -- that is brrrrrrrrrrrrrriliant. My highest compliment: wish I had thought of it!
ReplyDeleteLovely set. The second and third are my faves. I also thought of island-hopping for the prompt when I woke up today.
ReplyDeleteLovely ones, I especially like the images in second and fourth: islands united , holding hands or becoming one, under and over the sea.
ReplyDelete:)
Ah! wonderful imagery..all of them are written so beautifully...
ReplyDeleteHa I can tell that u thought hard on these...the word "profound" comes to mind. Nicely done:)
ReplyDeleteI like the sea of goslings, but feel sorry for the old goose!
ReplyDeleteThree Islands
Loved all of them, especially the islands holding hands. Had never thought of that.
