autumn leaves falling:
buried seeds look up hoarding
hope to grow anew.

Story of Life
Dew drops winking just
momentarily, to fade:
Story of life, lived.
******************
Paradise.
in crystal water -
under the blue sky: a lush
green - paradise mine.

Lightning!
cosmic energy:
pent up fury, just unleashed –
a bolt from the blue!

Rain.
Softly falling drops-
touches my soul - harmony!
in a shower to cleanse!

Haiku is Japanese lyric poetry, composed, usually in 3 lines of 5-7-5 syllables each, on some aspect of nature and the seasons. A very amateur attempt here:)
The picture for the Haiku "Rain" is a gift from a dear poet, Shalini Devraj. The others are pictures taken by my brother and son, on which I've attempted the writing with the help of Photoshop:)
