Nature

Green elms in the woods

 

with branches waving wildly

 

Standing tall and proud

 

 

The blood red rose droops

 

Its petals bend to the earth

 

Gently kissing it!

A pair of eloquent Haiku that belong together. The second compliments the first. I that read too much into things imagin the the elms calling wildly for anyone to pay attention to the rose now spent bent giving up its beauty of youth in the end of its days to kiss the earth from which it came.

Oh, Soren! You have the most beautiful soul! I simply adore your enchanting review of my simple little Haiku and I have to tell you that my eyes filled up with tears at your beautiful interpretation. Thank you with deepest gratitude and with beautiful blessings your way!

Dear Carlos, thank you so very much for reading and for your most kind words. Please forgive me for being late in replying. I have been quite unwell with a virus (not Covid, T.G.) and only felt well enough this evening to come to the computer. Thank you again, dear poet...

I have this tree that stand across from my house I don't know what it is but one thing about it is that it always waves about in the slightest breeze it flops and shimmies I think at times it looks like liquid this haiku reminds me of it

[Marie]

It is so nice that my Haiku reminded you of the lovely tree across from your home, Robert. Perhaps it is also an Elm tree? Thank you for reading and for your kind words...
