lovely imagery!
i like it, have a nice Friday
much love…
One of the most powerful haiku I’ve read lately.
This is so lovely, Bjorn! As always you carry me away with your words. A small humble suggestion, if I may. Do you think you really need the word ‘slowly’ ?
you might be right.. hnn.. to me it’s not so much in the meaning as in the rhythm of the words..
her gossamer dreams
melt into morning sun –
dewdrop glistens
maybe?
Maybe though in dream time the morning moves slow?
How delicate. Gossamer is a great word choice.
gossamer – one of my favorite words. It’s as if it holds a million meanings – all of them delicate and exquisite . . . barely.
That’s a very long title for a painting … nice haiku Björn.
You really packed it in to those few, amazing words! Well done.
love miro…you have reflected her painting perfectly….
Bjorn, your imagery is SO intense here.
just beautiful! love the artwork too.
Vivid dreams; blessings or curses?
Thanks for all your visits and sharing art too.
(I am still a bit behind on the pilgrimage visits.)
My dreams also (sometimes!) melt in morning sun to become as dewdrop memories. You give us a gem in seventeen words Bjorn…
Beautiful words made a lovely poem with artwork to match.
ah but the dew is like little jewel remnants…adding beauty to everything else…
I appreciate the haiku just as you wrote it. If you want to tinker with it later, that’s fine, but I’m not sure that any of us have the right to tinker with it for you.
In Step with Her Dreams
As dewdrops glisten.
Your beautiful haiku has such a peaceful and comforting feeling to it:)
