I have been on vacation and have missed the last two weeks of Haiku. I fear I am quite out of practice. Ron gave us some hard words this week too! Here is my humble offering… a bit on the dark side:
“Dark Lovers”
An onslaught of hate –
filling my weak heart with dread,
lovers no longer.
Thanks for popping in! I am always glad to see you. Until next time,
Follow Me on Social Media...
Hi Colleen, strong haiku, I could feel the hate from here, wow!
Elizabeth, thanks, although it is not one of my best. I just could not wrap any other feelings around those words. I think I am out of practise. 🙁
Colleen Cheseboro and hate in one thought jars my brain. Upsets my sensibility. It’s a great haiku nonetheless, my friend. <3
Mark, you are just sweet. I have no idea where this stuff comes from. Sometimes it just pours out of me. I had a hard time with the words. My husband says I am all sweet, etc. and then look out! LOL! Hate is such a strong word.
So when the fire comes, it’s a hot blaze, you say? That’s very attractive, too, Colleen, paired with the 99 percent sweetness. 😉
Well, Mark thank you for such an apt description of me. And, I am an Aries to boot! LOL! You made my day! 😀 <3
I’m here for you, Colleen. Sagittarian at your service. 🙂
Thanks Mark. 😀 <3
Hello Colleen! I imagined a couple tearing each other apart with words until there was irreparable damage. Dark and sad. Well done. <3
Thank you, Vashti. It was dark. Ah, next week we will have new words. These were rough for me this week. <3
It’s always good to do something quite different… I don’t think you’re out of practice at all, Colleen. Excellent!
Thank you, Olga. It was quite dark. :/

Hope you had a fun vacation, quite a dark haiku this week!
It was. I think I was in a dark mood. Tired from my vacation. That provokes different feelings and words. I am better this week. 😀
Glad to hear it. Funny how sometimes vacations can be tiring.
