Haiku Theory: CONTEMPLATION
Haiku Theory: CONTEMPLATION
We gaze and we drift
as we contemplate our lives
Unique in our minds
Alone in the dark
Writing poems about life
Watching it pass by
The journey we take
Is a journey we endure
In hope of freedom
As the flower wilts
the earth beneath gets reborn
with deceased petals
We long to be free
To dwell in eternity
Enraptured by love
