Authors Note: It’s hard to believe today marks my 200th haiku in Morgan’s challenge. Thank you all for indulging me on this journey 🙂
Heed the ocean’s roar
For in it, your spirit breathes
When the waves exhale

The winds blow strong
Like a storm, passing by
Quickly, taking all in its path
Leaves on the trees, rustling
A low pitch whistle, their cry
Of forceful air, as they gather
In a swirling dance, rhythmic
Sending them spiraling
Into places unknown
Much like the night
After the rumbling thunder
Has long been forgotten…

She was always cranky, when she was tired
Always felt worthless, and so uninspired
No one would listen, to her painful plight
Not even the sunset, would kiss her goodnight
So she plotted anew, gave him just one more chance
He ignored her again, this was not happenstance
The time had now come, with malicious desire
To offer herself, to the one with the fire
The flames grew taller, surrounded her being
And darkness engulfed her, with sparks, ever freeing
She welcomed the demons, she’d kept tucked away
She knew she would need them, on this, judgment day

Still hoping for renewed life

She is the mistress, the start of the night
Blazing blue eyes, that summon twilight
Covering skies, yes, she’s gazing at you
Darkening paths, as the stars become new
Teasing with glimmers, the last of the light
Dreams become real, when she slips out of sight
