Haiku for Photo

The Horsehead Nebula Astronomy Photo

a cranberry mist

galloping across the sky

rodeo of stars.

the birth of a colt

from womb of the galaxy

a true miracle.

The picture itself is amazing, but the poem describes it wonderfully. Haven't been on for awhile due to many test, and I'm glad this is the first poem I read while coming back. I love how one can taste the words that are laid together, and how you proved that Haikus hold so much imagery, even though they are so restricting. Great job, and much enjoyed.

I like it especially the last haiku. The third line of the first haiku doesn't seem to be in sync with the first two lines. Will google horsehead nebula for more info.

[SyberRose]

the url is on the authors note...thanks for peeking in...maybe ill change that last line after i give it some thought...Rose

Creepy cloaked person ! If this is galaxy stuff, why is it all dark ? I thought it would all be lit up ?

[SyberRose]

Its called a horsehead nubula ...but you would have to ask the astronomers that question...If you click on the url in the authors note you can read more about it.

[dw817]

Ohh - I see the horse's head now ! Haiku is tricky stuff, I never could get it right.

[SyberRose]

Its funny because i couldnt see the person until someone else told me about her tonight ha...strange

[dw817]

I immediately saw the woman when I first viewed it. I thought it was some super kooky painting and she was turning into dust and stuff.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Amazing, your description of the wonder is spot on.

[SyberRose]

Thank you Dale...yes you stare at these photos you can see all sorts of things...
