are ya in the dumps?
those with the highest hurdles
make the greatest jumps!

after the tempest
life's tower shattered and strewn
lies essential change

act of defiance
shirking danger all around
howlin' at the moon
Must be something in the night air!

silver droplet rolls
in a bowl of glinting jet

great thrusts upon thrusts,
an invigorating surge!
at the ocean's edge
Must be the Vallejoesque avatar inspiring me now.

the roses are red
and the nice violets are blue
they've been fed dog doo
I tried to warn you that I needed some inspiration

I am here, my dear
going a little slow today

five-legged spiders dance
madly on stark colored stones

where the past meets then
where paradox melds again

skies upon blue skies
grand mountains and forests green

bold, pious, joyful, dismayed

Natural poetic. I've been writing since I was a kid.
And don't be fooled, 90% of it is always sickly sweet
nothing wrong with sweet
it's only ever sickly
if you think it so
I have a tendency to write "purple prose" myself, gaudy perhaps, but it's just the way the words come to me.

Eloquent indeed!
Is it beginner's luck or
a natural muse?
I suspect the latter!

gracefully the eagle sees

flashing yellow lights
dance the green of evening
enticing my smile
captured in my hands
life does not mind a moments
appreciation
expecting only
freedom to be once again
in fluttering joy
Excellent piece, Avoice!
Personally, when it comes to writing haiku, I'm generally too lazy to keep a thought going for longer than a single verse. I'm a bit in awe of those who can.
