Ekphrastic Haiku: the fallen

the fallen
lying at the feet
of marching ancestors

sunbeam messengers
light-ly caressing
feathery faeries…

gossamer thin she walks like willow
gitter sweet church bells sing out Sunday
our times are fading from memory

we stand together
through thick and thin
married at birth
silently honouring wordless treaties

chrysanthemums and lollipops
like children playing in the fields
elicit gentle smiles

waves which are ocean made of ocean

unmoved, unmoving…

mind of ice, mind of heaven…

A Heaven Earth and Man haiku….

clouds into sky
sky into space
such marvellous primordial joy
our universal birthright
