Have been wanting to try my hand at Haiku for a long time. Don't know whether this fulfills the rules and grammar of Haiku...!
Crowds throng canteen
No lunch for caterer
He’s all smiles
Raindrops on leaves
Dripping pearl strings
Thirsty earth
Juicy guavas
Squirrels race
A snarled pole reaches first
Green henna leaves
Black mortar
Reddened hands
Silken thread
Gossamer fabric
Eight legs clambering down
Welcome to my blog. I'm Karkuzhali and I write poetry, fiction, and non-fiction in Tamil and English. I also translate into both languages.
