Haiku--By ayaz daryl nielsen--United States

birdsong across
the meadow flowers
I know you’re near

snoring

    Ayaz I loved all the Haiku, but my favorite reminds me of my precious husband. Perfect description of the sound of my sleeping partner next to me. Thank you for reminding me of the blessing of being able to tune him out, so much so, that even the fire crackers and bombs going off when the New Year came in, didn't even wake me. LOL Thank you for sharing your talent.
    Love, Charlene

    Enjoyed your Haiku. Loved the comic accuracy of snoring. Thanks, Ron Grognet

      yes, and am trying to convince my wife snoring is a mantra, and if she would listen, it would assist her into her own deep sleep - (little success so far, however)
