ancient light released
novae unfurl raw petals
affectionate rose

Leonard Cohen 俳句
shadows break at dusk
that’s how the starlight gets in
dance me to each crack
ashen words aglow
burn well through darkest of nights
breathe hallelujah
share his secret chord
frees us all from the tower
then recoup our souls

I recently submitted 3 haiku about Leonard Cohen to “Fevers of the Mind“ and were included in the anthology “Avalanches in Poetry III Poetry, Writings & Art Inspired by Leonard Cohen“!
I am just happy to be published! I am a huge fan of Leonard Cohen and it was a sad day when he passed away. I was lucky enough to see him in concert … twice!
And he did write haiku….
