Haiku Heights #286 ~ September Heights Day 13 

Superstition

Not sure if its true... 

Say, rabbit foot brings me luck...

I'll keep one for sake!. 

...

Just to mock us all! 

 Superstition is the prompt...

Unlucky - Friday!.  

...

Black cat cross my way, 

Cracked my reflection, how sad!

Pinch over my left!.

...

Candle Lights up glass.

Hide from your eyes' reflection,

Devil steals your soul

...

Hurry! Bring the shrouds!

Mirrors trap wondering souls

Glass - their prison cell.

...

Witch to go on stage.

Good Luck for your Machbet play!

Alas! She's been cursed!.

...

Eye on the boat's hull

Striped hues same as his fathers'

The seas are now safe.

...

Sssh...not a word friend

For the Turk under the stairs

Is cruel as is kind!.

...

Templars set the scene

Ominous Friday thirteen

Of thirteen seven.

Haiku Heights #285 ~ September Heights Day 12 

Holy

He who lived among, 

Venerated by mankind, 

Holy is his name.

...

 Pretending to be... 

Words mean nothing without act... 

Practice what you preach!. 

Haiku Heights #284 ~ September Heights Day11   Tradition

 Not the same routine, 

Tradition is what you are, 

Respecting thy roots.

...

I eagerly wait, 

For a day in a long year. 

To savor delights!. 

...

Years have come and gone, 

New born babies have grown old,

 I have withstood time.

...

Mother to daughter, 

Father to son and then again, 

Tradition lives on. 

...

A nations heirlooms, 

Beliefs, customs, tradition, 

Make us who we are.  

Haiku Heights #283 ~ September Heights Day 10 

Kitchen

Chilli and lime juice, 

Ginger and coriander, 

Perfect marriage!. 

...

Among pots and pans, 

Among sizzles and steam puffs, 

There I find myself. 

...

He who combine tastes, 

Kitchen is his sacred shrine, 

Alchemist of spice.  

Haiku Heights #282 ~ September Heights Day 09 

Decision

Much she had fought it, 

Impossible to erase,

Memory lives on...

...

Warm tucked in soft soil, 

For months it considered if... 

Warm spring woke her up.  

...

He waits there silent,

Hanging on her decisions, 

His life, hopes and dreams...

...

Clock turn back your hands, 

My mind has made its own choice, 

Oh! how wrong I was... 

Haiku Heights #281 ~ September Heights Day 08 

 Garland

Bay-leaf tinselled round 

 Him who proof his skills, is crowned 

Maiden kiss, guys - Grin.  

...

Lilies  laced by elf 

To lure child into the forest

never seen again. 

...

A crown of lilies 

Ophelia with her garland

Sleeps in shallow creek.

  

Haiku Heights #280 ~ September Heights Day 07 

 Dove

Forty days of rain, 

Two of a kind only saved, 

Dove brings sign of life. 

... 

Two on a wire, 

Cuddling close watching sun set, 

Woke by  morning dew.

Haiku Heights #279 ~ September Heights Day 06  

Teacher

Sigh - Bell marks the start

Tries again to explain Math

Paper planes fly round

...

Finally! Bell rings

Grab things as fast as she can

Woosh - gone before kids!

...

Sees herself on bench

A couple of years ago

So many dreams then..

...

Child raises his hand

Good! Student takes keen int'rest

"Miss, can I go pee?".

...

Rebel youth shout loud,  

Sing and dance upon desks tops,

Teacher walks - silence!.   

...

Morning - school bell rings, 

One by one slowly find seat,

Chalk Scribbles - exam!.  

...

When I don't study!, 

An apple for the teacher, 

That will do the trick!

Haiku Heights #278 ~ September Heights Day 05 

 Ballet

She laced her slippers, 

Butterflies in her stomach, 

Deep breath - curtain down.

...

A lake formed from tears, 

Moon light to show her true face, 

Her death came too soon!. 

...

Young girl had big dreams,

To one day perform as swan,

Poor thing - she cracked toe.  

...

Of tutus and points

I never understood much,

Nutcracker 's a tool!

Haiku Heights #277 ~ September Heights Day 04 

 Shepherd

Chop onion to start, 

Add mutton, make creamy mash,  

Perfect shepherd's pie!. 

...

From dawn till dusk herds,

His dear black and white sheep,

Trusty dog beside.

...

One by one he counts,

Missing black sheep, must have run,

Call in vain - wolf howl. 

Haiku Heights #276 ~ September Heights Day 03 

 Silver

A kiss marked the Lord,

 Blood stained thirty silver coins,

A rope marked the end.

...

Away from the eye, 

Lovers meet lips making love 

High - Silver moon shines. 

Haiku Heights #275 - September Heights Day 2

Guardian

Seated, Dorment, Still 

A pair - stone at the entrance

The lion dogs rest

...

Upon heavens shine,

Your beauty - ho mighty star

My strength beside me.

...

Warden of my soul

You love me for who I am,

I know you can hear.

...

Dear defender,

You protect this helpless me,

Until my last breath. 

    

Haiku Heights #274 - September Heights Day

Frogs

Near a pond we met, 

Love at first sight it read - kissed 

No prince yet again...   

...

Patiently waited 

For a moth to pass by me, 

In a jiffy, slurp!.  

...

Hippidy Hop Hop

Leap Upon Lily Pond Leaves

Ribbit! Boy and Jar!

Haiku Heights #273 - 

Bat

Prince of the macabre 

At dusk, your kingdom reveals  

Light melts it away.

...

Flapping wings unfold

Upon darkened nights he swoops

Echoes - a blind chase.

Harvester Of Stars

Harvester of stars, 

Lost among a million dreams, 

Wake! its not a dream. 

Reached for your hand, as we walked towards the dark reaching the golden room, there! where everyone wore masks. It was not our place, or perhaps it was the place we so longed for. Among fake smiles and subtle chants we made our way to the top of the stairs, looked down and saw destiny unfold, looked up and saw past in its mighty golden glory.

Fantasised a bit to much, perhaps the wine, perhaps had a little to much. As we walked among the masks came to me for a second or two, a memory of a past night, were fireflies filled the air, were a sweet smell of blossoms saturated the air.

I many times wondered how to make you listen the sound that was still, now that I learned you heard I find it hard to speak. But tonight we are not wearing masks only us walked unashamed among the crowd of dancing  phantoms. Only us walked proudly unveiled.

As more and more the night went by, the stars seamed to shine less, perhaps shadowed by the brilliance of the floating city above, or perhaps out-shined by your glistening eyes as they foretold what they saw in the imminent future. A leap in the dark it may seam to be, but who are we to judge? without even giving it a chance.

We wore a grin as we went back down the stairway, proudly walked among the crowd, they bowed in wonder as they removed their masks. To our chariot made us way...

Brand New

It was not you, not the person I know, somehow you looked different, somehow you looked lost. Your eyes seamed to be drained from the life they used to transmit. Somehow I can feel your pain, and somehow I wish I had words to comfort you. Silence ruled where once laid laughs, stillness where once there was life.

Tonight We'll dance,

Tonight we'll drink

Tonight you'll sing,

Tonight you'll forget.

Forget what it have been said, tonight its the night to erase. I know how hard it was to pick up your mask, long it have been since you last wore your emotionless veil. Behind that porcelain mask, emotions go trough, the mask can hide, but not your glassy eyes.

Pick up your shards, 

Tonight you'll heal,

Show the world that you are not afraid,

As human feel when hearts are chipped. 

Trapped in the moment between being awake neither asleep, confusing the two... when you realise that you are asleep you force more your eyes to shut, for you find it safe to be there. But dear this is not a dream, and I'm afraid the time for you to open your eyes has come.

Tonight you'll sing,

Tonight you'll dance.

Tonight you'll sleep,

 To wake to a new dawn.

Your world was build for him, your world was "he". Perhaps an illusion a fickle dream, like a child you wished it to be real, but in this life dreams tear. and we'll ask why do we have to wake?... But why deny your feelings tonight, why hide behind your still mask?. Don't be afraid of what lays ahead, don't sob your actions, stop this mourning pain you hold to, as tonight your brand new. Don't look for answers in others heart beat as not everybody's heart beat the same.

Tonight forget the pain tonight forget the tears,

Tonight your unchained tonight your brand new.

My world is only you,

My world is new without you.
