Haiku Collection 3
60 FATHER
Sweet Dad, no doubt
My life cannot be without
You showing the light.
61 FETE
What is for the eye
Abundance in enjoyment
Never to deprive.
62 FEMININE
It’s a big wonder
What is a proper woman?
Now it is not me.
63 FICKLE
Better a woman
Worse a chauvinistic male
Playing a lover.
64 FICTION
Such a story is
All life eternally bliss
But it is not so.
65 FILTH
Techno-modern den
The answer to your Eden
Let us think again.
66 FIRE!
I refuse to be
Mediocre as a bee
The Thames must be set.
67 FLY
Give me strong wings
So I may be where you are
So we will be One.
68 FOOL
Take my common sense
Wits will just give me worries
Simple happiness
69 FOREIGN
Ma, Mom, Mother
Woman who gave birth to me
Wife, there but not there.
70 FORTUNE
Find me just a chance
Overcome wealth of money
My spirited soul.
71 FREE
Such price this country
Proudly pays democracy
And what an outcome!
72 GAFFE
Societal blunder?
All you hypocrites deserve
Brutal honesty.
73 GENTLEMAN
Rocks of rarity
Of honorable wealthy
Do find me, take me.
74 GEWGAW
My advice to you
Fellow women so-called fair
Care with what you do.
75 GIFT
It is not enough
To be some good, talented
Is the key to be.
76 GLASS
Cold, hard to one’s touch
Brittle yes, transparent no
Cannot this be me?
77 GODDESS
Who said “God” is male?
Still I must believe what is
Eternally good.
78 GUFF
‘tis politicians’
Curse to lead in bad pretense
Achieve empty talk!
79 HAIR
Not turn my own strands?
That would not be Lora then
Calm and self-possessed.
80 HAND
How beautiful
To touch, to communicate
By simple gesture.
81 HAPPY
My little Sowon
An untainted innocence
Arms outstretched giving.
82 HASTE
Unreasonable?
At least I make them happen
I make my future.
84 HATE
Centered fear, anger
All too common emotions
It’s only human.
85 HAVE
Faith, hope, charity
Patience, understanding love
Wisdom, sanity.
86 HEART
Do we have it in
The right place when all is at
The mercy of Man?
87 HELP
A pair of hands is
All I have so don’t be shy
To ask for extras.
88 HERO
He who puts others
Before his own life willing
To take his last breath.
89 HIGH BROW
We’re not born stupid
Still the intellect must feel
Quite inadequate.
90 HIT
As hard as it is
Misfortunes are great lessons
Then stand up again.
