These are a few of my haikus. I'm new to haikuland, but I find them fairly relaxing to write and read. I suppose that's why mine are all parts of the unconscious world and darkness.

Night
Dove feathers float
'round light shadows in the night.
I sleep in knowledge.

Sleep
Twisted spires of ice
crack windows made of shadow
in dreams wide awake.

Dream
The squirrel flies high,
hits the stars in an arc sigh,
and then I smile wide.
After all, it is the pen that gives power to the mythical sword.

all the Butterflies
that I have killed with my car" Martin Lanaux

I really like the image I see when I read Sleep. You captured something that was comforting and then shocked open, and it's really intriguing for me! Maybe for one of your future poems, you could try exploring that image more. Have fun this NaPo. :3

have you read this week's Squills?

Too often we crave the extraordinary in life, without even learning how to cherish the ordinary first. Friend, I promise you this: if you can learn to take joy in the simple mundane things in life, the extraordinary will take care of itself, it'll be on its way, hurrying towards you. But if you skip the first part, it'll ever evade you.
