Night Sky

On a cool evening,
Artemis holds Aphrodite
in her arms

Once in a day,
Helios sends a silent message to Aphrodite
she smiles back

At the very moment when Helios meets Aphrodite,
a gooseberry comes
a passing shower

Haiku Party

Yesterday, I joined a haiku party on Twitter.
It was very simple, from 9:00 pm (-6 GMT); just post a Twitter short poem with a hash tag of #haikuparty.
At first, I wondered if I could keep up the pace.
However, as I read the posts, I came up with two poems.

around the globe,
around the clock,
bubbles come out

on a vast barrenness,
rain drops are falling
from a cloud called the heart

Furthermore, it was fun to read the poems from various people across the world.
I enjoyed the party a lot!
