Myth           Butter       Chirp 

Dread         Carnival       Wilted 

River 

Haiku Heights #293 ~ September Heights Day 20

Myth 

He whose name lives on,

Through time in ancient myth - 

Immortality!. 

...

Ho hide masked phantom,

You disguise you as perfect, 

Perfect is a myth!. 

...

Out of water stay,

For if the sea gets to taste,

You'll belong to him... 

Haiku Heights #292 ~ September Heights Day 19

Butter 

For centuries asked, 

Who's butter was best in taste, 

My verdict - Irish!.  

...

Wondering frog falls, 

Poor thing cried and swam in vain 

Milk pond turned to curd!. 

...

My friend on hot toast 

Melt'y, salty, goodness, spread,

 Spear my weakling heart!. 

...

Slip, crack, crash, smash.

A heap of broken china.

Opps - Butter Fingers!

Haiku Heights #291 ~ September Heights Day 18 

 Chirp

Chirping little girls

Not a care cast to the wind

In our secret world

...

The sparrow's chirping

And the shattering gun shot

Share the same valley

Haiku Heights #290 ~ September Heights Day 17 

Dread

He feared the answer, 

Walked with dread towards the nurse, 

His fears - horrid right... 

...

She kept on dreading,

What if  he said no again?,

Woke up - in cold sweat. 

...

Take a leap of faith

Plunge into the dark abyss

Fear of the unknown

...

Dreading the moment.

I hear the lock click open.

Sanctuary destroyed.

...

Monday broke the dawn

Feet dragging frowns through the door

Bell rings to start day.

...

Knots in my stomach

Voice breaking the silent ice

I knew his reply

Haiku Heights #289 ~ September Heights Day 16

 Carnival

As tradition wants, 

Five days of celebrations, 

Forty of fasting.

... 

I eagerly wait, 

Year after year to savour, 

Colourful praline...    

Haiku Heights #288 ~ September Heights Day 15 

 Wilted

Young men courted her, 

Years passed - her beauty wilted, 

Still.... old men court her.... 

...

First roses to bloom,

Our journey was long and hard,

Your bouquet wilted.

...

Flower past its bloom,

Radiant beauty now faded,

Aged winter came.

Haiku Heights #287 ~ September Heights Day 14 

 River

Sacred creek of life, 

You, cleanser of sin stained  souls,

Life search for one drop... 

...

High on mountain born,

Down the winding valley lived,

 Sea your burial place.

                                                Dove  

  

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.

       Teacher         Ballet     Shepherd

        Silver        Guardian          Frogs  

                                  Bat  

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.
