wave after vast wave
crashing down, staggering us
here comes another
\\\\
cannot recover
squelched breath of too many dreams
spectered ocean teems
\\\\
deep dark descending
unending fall, now halted
by exalted calls
~~~~
distant, haunting tune
insistent, enchanting thrall
sirens’ sweet lagoon
~~~~
remember? joy buoys
in the deep rediscover
her magical spell
^^^^
we rise with this swell
breach, gasping for life’s inhale
exhausted, wracked, and pale yet
here to tell the tale
Simply superb Chloe …. I love the last stanza. It’s epic
Oh, how this lovely comment has made me smile, Jana! Thank you so, so much. xoxo
such Haiku pearls strung of struggle and heartache;
and the ultimately redemptive spirit and soul.
Love and Hugs to you, sweet Chloe.
Such a lovely image…Haiku pearls. You honor me, MasterWho. And inspire, both with your generous support and your gorgeous writing and art. I am deeply grateful. xoxo
You had me at the first line! Going from strength to strength, Chloe x
Such a joy and inspiration to have you here with your encouragement, Michele. Thank so much, Chloe xo
I’m just voiceless – il y a une telle Ć©nergie dans ton poĆØme – je pense que c’est la mĆŖme que celle qui te fait danser. So, may be it is your Secret : la puissance infinie de la Mer…
wave after vast wave

Ah, you are so wise and observant, my faraway friend. I believe you have “hit the nail on the head”–my passions for the sea and the dance are connected, feed and inspire each other. I am so grateful for your thoughtful, generous, lovely and insightful presence here, Frederic. xoxo
