Haiku




Impossible love
is thin ice in cold rivers,
easy to evaporate.
.
It's love in first sight,
Impossible to divide
well matched numbers.
.
It's impossible
to jump in the love river
without the duty call.

.

    Hi Morning ~~ I like your set, each verse goes together nicely with the other.
    ..
    BTW, I am counting those by sex who are led by their muse from 'river' to 'love'. So far it is one female to two males out of six reads.
    This includes me although I really didn't think many would go this way.

    All are lovely! Like the first as it happens most times in either forbidden or unrequited love.

    Morning your haiku are so well written full of love, romance, and I think you are right it would be hard to jump in the cold river without loves call.
