I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you - Nobody - too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Dont tell! they'd banish us - you know!
How dreary - to be - Somebody!
How public - like a Frog -
To tell your name - the livelong June -
To an admiring Bog!--Emily Dickinson

Just a human voice,
so beautiful, so ugly.
While they bellow, sing!Inspired by all of the wonderful poets and musicians around the world who are using their beautiful voices in support of the Palestinian people.

The earth trembles as
feet strike, marching.Those who stand
still must bear witness!#GazaGenocide #Rafah #Palestine #Haiku #TinyPoem #WritingCommunity
* I am not an activist. In fact, for the last several months I've found myself in a state of paralysis. Thank you to those who have been able to move, make angry, beautiful noise, and inspire.

All is dulled to dust.
Particles dance in the winds
as we shield our eyes.(I promise that the next Haiku I share will be more hopeful.)

Stuck in bed feeling not-too-great, and I'm happy for the slice of sky I can see from my room.
Thanks to this window,
I can watch the birds fly by
from my lonely nest. -
We are still with you.
We came up for air. Deep breath!
We are still with you!Artwork - Caitlin Blunnie

CW: CW - Sweary Haiku
A little existential poem. Haiku poems don't have titles, but I've decided that this one does.

A day-2-of-recording Haiku.
The singer's question:
will my voice cooperate
when my mouth opens?#Singing #Musodon #Haiku #WritingCommunity #TinyPoem
(Recording gorgeous music for three female voices written by @sivemusic and we are having a blast!)

Rounding the corner,
facing the low winter sun,
we must feel our way. -
I try to write a Haiku a day, as I love word games & I love writing.
Today, I took a notion & wrote a very simple one in the Irish language (Gaeilge) of which I have a very poor grasp, despite learning it in both primary & secondary school.
It's such a beautiful language, which I'll push on through & learn properly some day I hope!Bhí brónach orm.
Chuala mé éin ag canadh,
agus théadh mo chroí.Translation:
I was sad.
I heard birds singing,
and my heart warmed -
Dance with me
The way time
Waltzes order
To disorder. -
Post-Christmas coffee shop Haiku.
Eight solo tables.
Nobody here looks lonely.
It's our chance to breathe! -
This is our river.
Look, walk, swim or float; it flows.
The well is stagnant.#Haiku #TinyPoem #WritingCommunity #Twitter #Xitter #Mastodon #Fediverse

Intensifier:
as breath-dependant humans,
help is really late. -
We speak the same tongue,
yet without love's translation
all meaning is lost. -
Fluctuating light
disobeying directions.
Soundtrack chosen: Bach. -
It's a day for a Haiku and a walk.
Today I will walk
a path smooth and straight, as if
all is well on Earth. -
I'm just a human
operating at half-speed.
She is animal!(Kerrie...the best thing to happen to me in 2023)

Foundation level
people-watching is to see
each soul as human. -
What is new today?
Too much - more than I can know,
understand or say! -
And still the powerful
bluff and blunder, ignoring
what is dead ahead!#DailyHaikuPrompt - Ice

Acceptance
With a walk along
the water comes acceptance.
Yes, another day! -
Gratitude: thankful
that I can wallow and mope.
Gratefulness can wait!A cheeky little take on gratitude journalling. Sunday...my favourite day for a good wallow!

Not empty at all!
Your dance card was full, we learned
through condolences. -
A Ringing in My Ear
The truth has to be worth something.
We cannot abandon it in the hope that it finds its own way while we are busy battling the lie.
We must pause and, with a coded smile, take the time to celebrate the truth.
