haiku challenge – Word Shaper

Responding to Anxiety

Cruel fears rising up

Rising up within the calm

Catching me off guard

“Broken Dreams” by andziadesign

Every so often, I like to challenge myself with my poetry. Today I logged into Bing Images, grabbed the first one, and crafted the haiku below.

A heart bursting forth
Anguish is encompassing
This near winter night

New romance’s joys,
Intense fluttering heart-rates;
Ah, twitterpation!

Sea’s ungentle care
Focused malice against them.
Drifting Argonauts

For those lacking this
Entelechy, life labors;
Frustration creeps up

My, this was a tough one.

Deep into my heart
Wash away the deep set pain
Unburden my path

Exposing sadness
Uncomfortable, sometimes
Yet not a sickness.
