Haiku Suite: Colors

A chapter in the book Haiku and Senryu Suites

Roy G Biv and Kin

by Badger_29


Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore of the mind. Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore

Pawing at the ground
 looking extremely angry,
sharp horns pierce the air

A brave clown stepped in
 waving a red handkerchief;
the Cowboy escaped

in the Western sky 
bathed in water colored tints,
 the sun is setting 

the earth's atmosphere
filters the spectrum of light 
 in shades of orange

glistening with dew
growing wild in the sun,
a field of mustard

The eager blossoms 
dancing slowly with the light
 shockingly golden

removing our shoes,
hot tired feet languishing
 In the cool green grass

then we were running
 feet flattening the wet grass,
chasing butterflies

our son was laughing,
having just escaped sister's 
playful clutching hands

so we joined them there-
baby blue eyes shining with
our joyful moment

a gift I bequeathed 
to my beloved that day:
in a pretty box 

unwrapping slowly,
the deep indigo sapphire 
flashing like a star

colors faded then
filling us with excitement
of the tasty treats

purple shades of night 
surrounded us as we lay
beside the warm fire

Thanks to Google for the image, and
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow for the quote.

Of course by Roy G Biv, I am referring to the Elementary School name which is given as a tool to remember the seven colors of the rainbow.
Red -orange -yellow- green -blue- indigo, and violet

Always enjoy the rainbow, as it is the symbol of God's promise after the flood which Noah built the ark for.

Blessings,
Brother Badger
