Haiku Heights April Challenge, day 11 "possible"


Day 11 in our Haiku Heights April Challenge. Not an easy one for today ... possible ... a tough one I think. So I have searched for synonyms for possible and came up with the following series of synonyms: available, breeze (in the non-formal way), desirable, hopeful and promising. So for today I will try to use these in my contribution to the Haiku Heights April Challenge.

promising dreams
in the midst of the summer
her first born child


her first born child
lies in her arms sobbing
hopeful new day


hopeful new day
available in yellowish
a great sunflower


Credits: Van Gogh Sunflowers
a great sunflower
desirable to bright sunlight
bows his head to earth

bows his head to earth
a possible new flower opens
promising dreams

Well ... not entirly what I would like it to be, but ... this is a experiment ... painting with words without saying something ... No not a great contribution I think.

It's interesting and very challenging to use synonyms! Well done! I like sunflowers, especially Van Gogh's ones!!!

I like this haiku very much. I do think of a child's birth as being a new promise for all of us. A continuation, a hope. Thank you.

The sobbing child got to me... Sunflowers are a happier image.
