Carpe Diem - Indigo


Work in progress

Clad in indigo
Nomads through the desert
Oasis waiting far away

Indigo marks
All over her body
But beauty resists

An ocean of flowers
All waving indigo
So Winter stays away

I might add another haiku, I'll sure add a picture I have in mind, bur which I can't access at the moment. So it's a work in progress.

  1. Awesome series on 'indigo' Lothar. Nicely crafted haiku.I think this ,work in progress' is well done and the second, unless the sad tone, 'a woman beaten' is really good. It's sad that women are beaten by their man our boyfriends and this must be stopped.
    Thank you for sharing.

  2. "It's sad that women are beaten by their man our boyfriends and this must be stopped." Yes, indeed there's still a lot to do. Also beating children or the very old. I'm happy that this haiku went well over my first intention, as I was more hinting at ritual tattoos. I'll repost this haiku on twitter for stirring awareness on domestic violence.
