"It Will Be Good." (complicated semi-spiritual emotional story.)

"Upon his bench the pieces lay
As if an artwork on display
Of gears and hands
And wire-thin bands
That glisten in dim candle play." -Janice T., Clockwork[love that poem, dont know why, im not steampunk]


Snowfall from below

Stare at weeping clouds above

Tiny flurries raining

Chilling ruddy face upturned

Smiling in the storm

Whistling wind freezes ears

Laughter mingles with

Roaring wind, whispering snow

Snowflake; lands on nose

Melts there, droplet hugging red

Rosy skin envelopes

Other snow blown away

Whistling, whispering cries

Fade into background


The author's comments:

k I've never written a haiku b4 don't judge. and yes, I'm breaking the rules. when have i ever followed them? (i mean society and artistic rules) not much fun following the rules. besides my big problem with haikus is that they're so short.

this is potentially about a rabbit.
