To see





to see the world in
different colors and phases,
blessed gift to share  


~0~0


to see the bright side  
in others, forget yourself, 
like the sinking sun 


~0~0


desires and wants flee
like firecrackers on new year,
live a simple life


~0~0


desire to be one
with nature, peaceful thoughts come
amidst rock garden 





Written for Few Miles Haiku Challenge 2012 for the month of February:   Day 11- Paint the Image .
and Haiku Heights:   Prompt #106 is Desire

    I'm hoping that the firecrackers of my desires will all explode and leave me only the essentials...

    The first two especially, I like - you've interpreted the image as a metaphor and point of departure, like a jazz musician, and this works well for me.

    (Thanks for all your encouragement and for introducing me to dVerse originally).
