.
billowing clouds

  journey across the sky —

unnamed
'

.
as
.
.
.
effervescent streams

    rush faithfully to the sea —

they haven't met
.
.
.
and
.
.
.
fragrant honeysuckle

    rest on lush flowerbeds —

on a sultry day
.
.
.
by
.
.
.
succulent grapevines

    that grow untamed on worn walls —

teeming with wine
.
.
.
where
.
.
.
nature's wondrous gifts

    await for you and me —

in God's backyard
 
 
 
 

Author Notes
A Haiku Chain is a haiku suite (3 or more) linked by one word, usually a conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so) and other words. All the haiku rules apply.

HAIKU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment. It resonates on a deeper level, enlightening the reader and making an insightful connection. Japanese Haiku consists of three unrhymed lines with a 5/7/5 syllable count. English Haiku consists of three unrhymed lines of seventeen or fewer syllables because Japanese and English syllables differ. click here to read haiku examples * click here to read haiku rules * click here to read why is 5/7/5 OR LESS rule * click here for season words
