Haiku Train

[Suzanne]

in a fresh spring
unfurling ferns ache to touch
the distant Sun's cheek.

[arunansu]

the distant Sun's cheek
softly brushes
twilight river

[Suzanne]

twilight river
caresses your velvet skin
we flow beyond time.

[arunansu]

we flow beyond time
petite bird
lost in sky

[arunansu]

lost in sky
heaven-bound thoughts
earthy fragrance

[arunansu]

earthy fragrance
attracts Adam, Eve
and raindrops

[arunansu]

and raindrops
marry
on windowpane

[arunansu]

on windowpane
her fluttery eyes
seek sunshine

[arunansu]

seek sunshine
the April's buds
opening their arms

[oranggunung]

Opening their arms,
two lovers ran together
and blurred into one.

[arunansu]

and blurred into one
twin rainbows
near a cliff

[Gazelle]

near a cliff
moisture gathers in puddles
dry crevices wet.

[arunansu]

dry crevices wet
with mid-August tears
koel's song

[oranggunung]

Koel’s song is sung.
Flames rise and ignite the clouds.
My shutters stay closed.

[arunansu]

My shutters stay closed.
Room,a banyan-shade
sans the summer breeze

[arunansu]

sans the summer breeze
sans maple leaves
and you

[arunansu]

and you
smiling somewhere
beside your shadow

[Raisin]

Beside your shadow.
You just don't see it coming,
he'll double-cross you.

[arunansu]

He'll double-cross you
torment you
the hailstorm

[arunansu]

the hailstorm killed her
she's now a dandelion
again

[arunansu]

again
Jesus will watch
morning glow

[Suzanne]

morning glow
warmth flows to my open heart
you bring butterflies.

[Gazelle]

you bring butterflies






You bring butterflies
They're the old hopes kept bedside
sealed tightly in a jar.

[arunansu]

sealed tightly in a jar
heart thumps
bird without wings

[arunansu]

bird without wings
watches supersonic jet
soap bubbles drift
