nature – Inside Iliana Ike

Haiku

the sun kisses the waving trees as if for the very first time

drenched in rain, thankful earth breathed for another day

a retiring squirrel scurries up the bark with its latest find

a single red rose, a honey-sucking bee meets for the first time

pitter patter of rain washed all our troubles away

dancing daffodils sway to the gentle breeze one summer’s day

swooping seagulls cluster at the bay as they peck for food

a gentle breeze, kisses the flowers as it sways at night

Shining stars oh so bright, what message befalls tonight?

The earth stills, the moonlight dances o’ ver sleeping heads
