beauty


beauty’s  all around
everything we see and hear
everything we touch

heaven opens up
shines on us with love and light
for all earths creatures

so open your heart
to the beauty all around
spreading joy to all

    I so love haiku! More than that I love to see haiku strings, one just always leaves me wanting MORE! There are many short forms that make fantastic stanza's...I call them String poems and love to tinker with them. This is a very touching write of care and nature combined...and the BG is lovely! A beautiful haiku "string". Best of wishes... ~genielassie~

    A lovely piece here. I now have a 'haiku' collection (the last one on my collection list) some I am sure to your liking and others I am sure not. Check them out if you'd like.

    Again, a lovely piece here.

    Well, my heart is just dense, so I don't want to open my heart up and bleed everywhere, but, a nice sentiment tho.

    A good piece here.

    “Lovely” would be the word to describe your poem
    and it’s very well done considering the demanding format
    the restrictions only added to the performance of the poem
    ;) it’s a happy poem and very uplifting

    'so open your heart
    to the beauty all around
    spreading joy to all '

    I wish everyone was in this state of mind. This open minded, open hearted smilingness. :) haiku is not my favorite form, I have a tendency to gravitate toward the freeness of something more unique, but you've worked wonders with this one.
