Two Haiku Poem by Max Reif

Two Haiku

Rating: ★0.5


like green trees in drought,
you must draw from the unseen —
send your roots down deep

***

it's the man-made thunder
in the hills you must fear, my children —
its lightning will tear you apart.

I enjoyed both of these. For me the second one hardest because it is so terrifying.

Max I love these - especially the first. So simply put yet so profound. Love your way with haiku! Linda
