Soft and tender lips

providing lasting comfort;

complex as it is.

Lips form syllables...Lips form kisses...Lips show emotions...Lips are suductive... Lips are keys to everything we do and feel..outwardly as readable as the eyes... I'm not really versed in the different types of poems (high school thing...) But these Haikus that you write are soooo full of meaning...one could take apart each line word by word and fill a paragraph on each words meanings...then tackle the whole line (another paragraph) until you get to the whole poem. But your picture helped me to understand it better...sometimes I'm a visual aide type person..lol The picture also seems to me to say that ones lips are the windows to your soul..(having the eyes inbetween them lends its self to the window concept) Wonderfully crafted and very thought provoking concept...hope I read it right though :)

I love the metaphor of complexity used in this Haiku. Conflicted with words of passion, lips can definitely be the transcending feature of emotions. Well penned.

You said it all in the 11 words. A proper kiss can set a fire that can't be put out. Thank you for the excellent poem.

First of all that picture freaked me out a little...lol
The poem itself is soft, lil sensual, I guess depending on how you read and interpret this piece. Seems to me it could have several interprtations.
As complex as it is...lol
Very well done
Im still thinking about that picture...haha

Really nice! I thought Haikus were only for nature description. But this was very good. These three lines expressed a lot...

Thoughts here of the complex...

[Mockingbird]

i find it sensual. it is also open to many interpretations. complex could refer to the relationship they have one another. i liked this poem. great job.
