Carpe Diem, Nightingale 2


Also published and shared on: Rebecca's Haiku My Heart

I had to share a few more haiku on Nightingale. I love his sound very much and I am almost like the Emperor from the fairy tale. When I hear the Nightingale sing tears begin to come. A deep emotional relaxation almost meditative. So here it goes.

silence ...
on the thin line of day and night
Nightingale's song

Nightingale's song
makes the night less lonesome

shedding tears

every day night walk
through the neighborhood

a Nightingale

invincible
the song of the Nightingale

makes my day

the scent of Honeysuckle
dreaming of my beloved wife -
a Nightingale's voice


Well ... did you like them? I hope so ....

Today we have ... Nightingale ... for prompt. So let's go and write a haiku or two on Nightingale.

in the twilightzone
the song of a nightingale
in my backyard

in my backyard
inbetween the trees and bushes
a nightingale's song


As a nurse I love to share here a haiku about Florence Nightingale.

lady with the lamp
seeking for wounded soldiers
the source of nursing

the source of nursing
daughter of a preacherman
lady with the lamp



See you next time ... when? I don't know ... we will see.

Haiku Heights, "music"


For this week Haiku Heights I have written a few, as I call them, Impromptu verses.

Nightingale's song
makes the night less lonesome
shedding tears


I love music
nature's full of music
screaming radio


Credits: Music


the sound of water
waves breaking on the beach
a seagull cry


mysterious
the rustling of bamboo leaves
Krishna's flute
