Cherry Blossoms…. By Dwight Roth

Cherry blossoms lead the Spring parade. Along with flowering pear, and redbuds they provide a glorious silhouette against the deep blue sky. I took this photo in my neighborhood this morning. Cherry blossoms are a great symbol of new life and light as we lead into Easter this coming weekend.
Cherry blossoms shine
Painting warm soft spring snowflakes
Soon wrapped in deep green
At d’Verse, Frank asked us to write our Monday Haibun on the theme of cherry blossoms. I waited to post till today so I could show you the beautiful cherry blossoms I see as I pass in and out of my neighborhood.

Karma Bites …..by VJ Knutson
She looks over my shoulder
that sister, born dying –
whom I mocked, cajoled
and judged so harshly
She breathes down my neck
that sister, I despised
for her sin, and mistakes
how she always abandoned me
She taunts me constantly
ridicules my failing ways
her thoughts poisoned darts
attack me at my core
My eyes are opening,
compassion too late
“Karma bites”, her ghost
hisses as illness seeps in.
(For Reena’s Xploration Challenge: karma bites. Image my own)

As Tasha was sitting on a stump she was suddenly aware of movement out yonder in the field. She couldn’t quite make out what it was from where she was sitting. Watching she decided she didn’t want to get any closer at that moment. (44 Words)

How often we have wished that karma does its thing instantly
Instead, we desire and wait for fate to step in and do what we hope

Revenge is sweet but not everyone wants to take matters into their hands
We leave it to karma to set the balance right without our active role

It often takes its victim unawares, playing out its righteous maneuver
Generating ultimate satisfaction in the breast of the unjustly wronged

Deliciously disastrous …….by Radhika
A fun poem from me this time 🙂
Silken textures
melony fusions
a citrus tease
caramel swirls
fruity punch
nutty delights
creamy chocolate
coffee frappe
saffron trails
spicy berry
vanilla tendrils
sugary treats
cinnamon tales
gooey affairs
decadent desserts
bursts of flavor
insatiablecravings
sinful indulgence
karma bites
weight soars
clothes shrink!
English version here
If there is no darkness, just delay
Why’s that person not yet mine?Why doesn’t the night pass away
Why is my house dark, not thine?I was dear to them some day
face in their frames is not mineWhy did I let them move away?
One can stop life, but not time…Who is not a pawn of fate?
If you lost a game, why whine?Read original Hindi poem by hecblogger (Amit Agrawal) below.
गर उसके घर में देर है अंधेरा नहीं है
तो क्यों वो शख़्स अब तक मेरा नहीं है
क्यों नहीं कटती है यह काली रात
एक मेरे ही घर में क्यों सवेरा नहीं है
होते थे हम भी कभी उसको अज़ीज़
अब उसकी तस्वीर में मेरा चेहरा नहीं है
कि काश रोक लेते हम उस दिन उसे
वक़्त किसी के रोके से ठहरा नहीं है
क्या ग़म जो हारा तू यह बाज़ी अमित
है कौन जो तकदीर का मोहरा नहीं है

Such a jerk …… By Jim Adams

One way or another, someone has to kick that guy right in his head, what on Earth is he trying to do, he better get himself together before Karma bites him in his ass. There is no reason for him to be threating this poor little girl, who by the way seems completely innocent to me, so harsh. He admits to being a wicked guy with a jealous mind, but that is no excuse for this type of behavior. I can’t see anyone in their right mind ever singing about domestic abuse where women get beaten and battered by their man, but it does happen. March is all about celebrating the accomplishments of women, but we also need to do something for the ones that need protection. When a man threatens to take a girl’s head off and tells her that she better run for her life, then that man…

Bloody Fate ….by Susi Bocks
you’re cold as ice
my head and heart swirling
the end of us staring me in the face
may your destiny
hurt as much as my present
i’m hoping karma bites you in the ass, hard
