Homecoming | Sensational Haiku Wednesday


Homecoming Haiku
Thanks to Jenn for this week's theme

Homecoming

Restless heart, settle on peace.
Be blessed to say: “I’m coming home.”
At each end of day.

~RA

PS. I just realized that I was confusing syllables with words in my haiku, thanks to Jenn's sweet comment. So here is an updated version of the previous one above going by the real rules.

Restless heart, seek peace.
Bliss is in “I’m coming home.”
At each end of day.

~RA


The meme basics:

Haiku is simple!
It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively
(a great way to use your fingers!)


Thanks for every visit and comment.
Keep a song in your heart.

  2. So lovely! If only people could be happy with simple happiness in life, right?

    Heehee, you know I just realized you're using 5-7-5 WORDS instead of syllables! Couldn't figure out why I didn't see a haiku anywhere last week, and then this week it just made sense. I'll take it :)

    @Jenn: My goodness, I just realized it too. LOL. Thanks for taking them, but I have worked on some updates. Haikus should be haikus ;)

  6. Rosidah -- Haiku isn't easy to master. I think you do quite well, especially since English isn't your native tongue.
