Reflections (assorted haikus)
---these aren't all of them
I will constantly add more
this is a haiku ; ) ---
*********************
the sky was so blue
the ocean got jealous and
imitated it
**************
red is a color
just like brown or green or blue
black is all the hues
when mixed with some light
and then stirred with emotion
it's a work of art
****************
falling fast asleep
the rain fell along with me
ushering in dreams
my head is spinning
the earth spins along with me
into the blackness
as I lay dreaming
the world dreamed along with me
and we all found peace
****************
why don't we lie down
and listen to the silence
but soak up the sound
****************
enveloping me
the giant wave curled, crashing
is all I could hear
********
trusty fireflies
will take over when the stars
are hidden by clouds
