Forget-me-Not

I
it curled on your touch
shied away under the skin
blooms happily since

***
II
forget me not world,
when I am alive, rather
missing when am dead

***
III
forget me not, were
his words painted on that cloth
I still remember

***

Written for Haiku heights 154
Prompt word- "Forget me not"

    Nice one. But so sad. I like happy ones. Here is a quote from Lord Alfred Tennyson:


    The sweet forget-me-nots,
    That grow for happy lovers.

      Sad or happy, the point is: you wrote!

    I agree with SG.. good haiku all, but a tad sad. :D Take 2 perhaps, Ekta?

    A request in general.. can u have a non-dynamic template perhaps? This rejects my comments at times.

      I meant the template.. not the background :) Something in "Simple" or "Picture Box" etc.. rather than the dynamic one.

    Sounds good. However my knowledge on Haiku is absolute zero.

    I love poetry and this one looks like 55 words kinda poetry. Good one. The picture is creative.

      Thanks Shweta.

      Haiku is short form of poetry often written in 3 lines following the pattern of 5,7,5 syllables in each.

      Normally Haiku is written for/ on nature etc. Trust that helps.

    Beautiful Haiku. I loved the first one.

    You asked about how to write in Hindi. I type here http://www.google.com/transliterate/ and copy/paste it on my blog. :)
