Haiku is an unrhymed, syllabic form adapted from the Japanese: three lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables. Because it is so brief, a haiku is necessarily imagistic, concrete and pithy, capturing a single moment in a very few words.

looking in your eyes
I become blinded by that
which is your great love
time has never meant
as much as it does right now
that you’re here with me
when I see your face
it’s another perfect day
in my little world
when I am with you
nothing else matters at all
you are that special
all hardness from life
that has overcome my heart
dissolves with your touch
minutes feel like days
days feel like eternity
when we are apart
when I close my eyes
and slip into a slumber
you are all I see
meeting each other
was one in six billion odds
chance straight from Heaven
when my arms are wrapped
in a tight embrace with you
I feel my greatest
The vision to see, the faith to believe, and the will to do will take you anywhere you want to go.
