you pass by each day
nobody sees or hears you
alone in a crowd

It's been too long since I created a Haiga, or any kind of poem, really. I don't imagine anyone missed me, but I missed poetry.
The poet created the Haiga using one of her own photos and the software at pixlr.com
You are welcome to share either the photo or the Haiga, but please credit me.
The Haiga was inspired by a prompt from Carpe Diem Haiku.
I am sharing today's work with:
Here's some music to listen to while you read the poem. You're welcome to grab a coffee, tea, or whatever while you read and listen. From your own supply. I'll probably be a bit unsettled if you show up at my place demanding coffee or tea.
You know the drill if you've been here for a while. Here's the link in case you can't see the embedded player.
I love the image, and the poem. Thank you for both.
ReplyDeleteI can relate to that sense of being alone in a crowd, living in a city with 10 million people!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photograph and haiga!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeletePretty fish and aquarium scene. I like your poem, I do not like crowds so solitude can be a good thing. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy week. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
I think they must be lonely - or bored..........an unnatural habitat. Fish are smarter than we know. My friend puts a different photo up against the fishbowl every day for the fish to look at, and it does - it comes over in excitement to see the change. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image and poem!
