Nicholas-Poetry Writing 1 Haibun Contest
It's a love that last's a lifetime. A sincere attraction to all that is good from the both of us. Forgetting all the broken promises from yesterday's leftovers and tomorrow's fear of the unknown. From the way you play with my hair at night, and the tender kisses before bed, I am drawn to you like a magnet to it's forces of nature. Beliefs in our days to come has brought me to a state of delightful pleasure, and it will always be that way for us...
magnetic forces
companionship all our days
I believe in you
Expressing my affection has always come so easily for me. The scent that you carry, and have always carried, reminds me of the day we said our vows at the alter. If not for you, I don't think I would ever be able to tell the difference between passion and hurt. Twenty years ago, we shared that first look. The look that set in motion a beautiful friendship and remarkable connection we share...Our song from 1996 still rings magic in my soul...a pretty tune of beauty and romanticism.
your scent a love song
two decades calling our name
you believe in me
We have that flower...the one that portrays our vivid appreciation for each other's uniqueness. For I am your flower and I need you to nourish me for all the days of my life. That's what lovers do...We start off as tiny seeds, then the root grasps the earth for stability and the stem encompasses the bud...our strong bud blossoming into a life of delight and joy. At times I wonder what my life would be like with out you. I mean if God took you away. There would be no more dry eyes within me. So now the paths I take will be vibrant with a reflection that manifest's itself into a magnificent streak of light. It would be our light, and we would radiate through out the universe...
our celestial star
flowers blossoming for you
we believe in us
Poem Form: Haibun
Meaning:A Japanese form of poetry that consists a section of prose followed by haiku.
*I enjoy the haibun poetry form because to me, writing prose has always been my favorite form of writing. I think it's beautiful to read a stanza of prose followed by a short simple haiku. It separates each other, yet compliments each other at the same time.*
