September Heights, day 27 footprint

Inspired by the theme at



 

The end of this September Heights is almost there. Just a few days to write a haiku. For today the prompt is footprint. With that prompt it must be easy to write a haiku (maybe a few).

next to my footprint
the empty shell of a hermit crab =
Ah! what a sadness


virginity lost -
the tiny footprints of sparrows

in the fresh snow

That was my post for today. See you all next day.

hey, you got me confused! I was just now to your other blog: Basho... Hey, you've posted different haiku here and there :-)
Oh, these are very beautiful. Particularly like the last one

Lovely haiku. The empty crab shell was poignant.

Thank you all for your kind words here. Mariya I can understand that you're confused. Here on blogspot I am Chevrefeuille. On wordpress I write as Basho2012 because I couldn't start a blog there as Chevrefeuille. I am a haiku addict ... so I have enough inspiration to write at more weblogs.
