Haiku #326

You must look to see The beauty beyond the trees Standing between us

Floss-silk

Her thorns are a mystery each a sweetbrier of history With roots running deep there’s strength in her beliefs She reaches for the sky no rhymes or reasons to justify Thriving in a cold world fighting for space to unfurl Bestowed by unique beauty I find myself beguilingly on duty Barren of emotional leaves yet

Indiscriminately ~ #Tanka #Poem

Sultry wind danced To melodic fluttering With all of the leaves Every shape, size and color Tangoed together at once Oh yes, a prompt with an extra twist – sponsored by Colleen Chesebro at: https://colleenchesebro.com/2017/12/12/colleens-weekly-tanka-tuesday-poetry-challenge-62-bells-past/
