Medicine Man


Feather raised in hand
Face pointed to a dark sky
He chants for healing

    You did a great job on this haiku. I really enjoy them myself. The words you used in such a short piece mean a lot too. Your imagery and flow was great. Keep on penning. Congrats on being Hoodwinked by the Bandits.

    Great Haiku! Chanting for healing opens up a world of spirituality and life that alot turn their backs on but I think you've opened this so well even a cynic would appreicate it


    Stay safe

    A very nice and unique Haiku! I like the culture and nature blend in this thoughtful piece, it stirs the imagination as all good poetry should. Write on dear poet.

    I like this native indian ku...
    the imagery of a the old one like the sun and moon
    natural medicine for healing through the spirits
    I do feel this falls more into a senryu though...
    I could be wrong?
    all the same it to me is a wonderful ku
    thanks so much for your lovely entry here
