I Write Her Weekly Haiku/Senryu Challenge #16

Susi Bocks Haiku/Senryu 5/7/5 Challenge

I hear

movement in the night
untouchable human form
pebbles tossed in pond

I feel

focused energy
light bound in an earthly form
beats within a song

I see

glimpse of pure beauty
that exist on natures edge
-meteors swift flight

-CJ Holm

precious thoughts from so long ago
mixed with sweet cream and sugar

Per Colleen’s November challenge, I chose goals and pennies as my synonyms for ambition & change in this Tanka

If left up to me
I would make everyone a king
But only for a day

Just a taste of supremacy
To let them enjoy their day
