Keys of the Heaven

A sonnet-renga from 'Hanamichi'

 

Don't look around!

we are unable to find

keys of the heaven

 

Nothing was found:

we have got nothing to lose -

vain expectations

 

My disappointed hopes'

shimmering mirage:

farewell glimpse of the sea -

twilight of dreaming 

 

Author's Note

my early experience of 'album sonnet-renga', when I
used to count syllables: 5-7-5 / 5-7-5 / 7-5-7-5 (dactyl)

A meloncholy poem.."farewell glimpse of the sea " sounds so sad...

[J. J. Nightingale]

Is it vanity that makes us search for the keys to heaven ..
Or is it hope, that we shall find a heaven ...

I love your words .. Sometimes I do not understand ..
But still, they touch my heart ...
