My lady love is often away on business and then I am sometimes a bit bereft

A while ago she went away for several days. Phone calls, cell-to-cell internationally, are quite costly and with bad lines and time lag and cr@p like that you don't feel like you are making an emotional connection. It's hard to express what you are feeling. And sms's are HORRIBLE becasue you only have a few lines. So, on the first day, I had a light-bulb moment. I'd make the best of a bad situation. I'd use the fact that I only have a few words to express myself and I'd write her a short-form poem each day. A Haiku per day! And I did. I sort of like the way they came out. I got BIG kudos from her when she got back! Yay! :-)

For the incurable romantics amongst you (like me) I share them here...

And THEN, if anyone would like to add THEIR Haiku of Love, of course you are welcome!

Bereft
Adrift in a sea
of the lack of you
The clouds pull in for the night

Not Alone
Like a lotus floats
On the lake’s gentle ripples
I find peace in thoughts of you

Your Eyes
When I see sadness in your eyes
I want to hold that sadness
Like a sleeping child

In My Heart
If life should pull and tear us apart
Still we’d be together
You live in my heart

Tides
When you are far
the tide rises and easily brims
Surely you are my sun and moon

Perfect
A hole in my heart
A hole in my soul
Filled perfectly by you

I know you
With closed eyes I would know you still
The touch of your soul
Is home to my heart

Exultation
Clouds clearing and sunlight streaming
Birds flocking, singing and calling
You're coming home, You're coming home

Those, Zingdaddy, are just beautiful!

I'd like to try one................

MY LOVE
Two strangers did meet
God sent you to me
Forever I am grateful


Just a hopeless romantic.

cruiser

The fairies made me garlands
of pure golden shimmery love
and these I give to you

Proudly she stares down
at her new born son
craddled in love

----------------------

Bells chime in your song
away melts the gloom
that plagued my heart

-----------------------

Zingdad, your Haiku are simply glorious! Well done! I composed the following:

A starship hovers
Above the happy couple:
To heal the lovers.

Lovers two embrace,
Kisses wet her darling face;
Sunlight fills the air.

God adores the Sun,
And loves the Moon and planets:
All of Life is One.

Sweetly you go fore,
You can bring with you my heart
Longing for you to come back
To return to me my heart

cheers may any your love last eternally

Gorgeous Aussie.

You are a ray of sunshine.

Your gorgeous too Juno...Thanks for compliment

In moments you behold your elequent streams of words to comfort and intrigue

But then the compliment should be with Zingdad for the tread and his romantic gestures to his love

cheers


No sooner have you gone
Am I to concele sadness
Impatiently awaiting on
For you are my happiness

I love these guys! So cool!

So I was just inspired to write another.

Picture Perfect
Your picture on my desk
Reminds me I am loved
And shines sunlight on my every moment
