Crimson

mountain crevices      
under curtain of water,
crimson with secrets 


~0~0


fireworks in the sky 
crimson dust twirling, falling  
peacock feathers bright


~0~0


crimson sun fading
behind blue tinge waterfalls,
dust to dust we fall  







Posted for Haiku Heights - Prompt is crimson
and Haiku My Heart


We are currently staying overnight in Hilton Niagara Falls Hotel.   Our room has a fantastic view of Niagara Falls.

    All the haikus are wonderful but the first one with the C alliteration is my favorite because it speaks to me personally.

    My first time here I think. I love your words with the use of crimson. I especially like the last haiku. Dust to dust, yes.
    I read your profile. Good for you to be expressing what you want to. If time permits, I'll wander this way again.

    Peace

    The name of your blog expresses your 'eye':) These poems are a perfect example of your beautiful gift!

    I was at the Hilton Falls View a few years ago! We didn't sleep much that night:) Too much to watch!

    A haiku set with such hope, sure wouldn't bring one to the end of their rope, unless it was the good end of course..haha

    That last one, profound, I felt. I saw our life's light as the fading crimson sun behind blue eyes... Wonderful!

    welcome to haiku my heart.
    forgive my late arrival...as i struggle the rough terrain of physical challenges.
    your beauty is a certain grace,
    you have generously blessed me with both.
