Haiku/Senryu--By Pravat Kumar Padhy--India

distant waterfall
her voice murmuring
something
__________

left behind--
the feather on
the fence
__________

wishing flags--
the wind carries
her emotion
__________

in search of God I search myself
__________

  4. Pravat,
    I loved these haiku, especially the last one-liner. I think each of us has a little bit of God inside of us, since He is everywhere, always. Welcome to Whispers!
    Your new friend,
