Haikus on the Green Movement

Haikus on the Green Movement
by Azadeh Azad
09-Jan-2010
 

the dead of winter
warmth in the Sunshine Café
earl gray tea and cake
 
my laptop is on
Iran on BBC world
riots, blood, fire
 
at the stroke of key
my eyelids open to green
hue of uprising
 
scent of roasted beans
my people’s anger, my peace
my guilt being so free
 
taste of tears and tea
my body here, my heart there
my mind in-between
 
the music changes
I smile at a couple
the hope of return

Ps. Orang Jan, I like earl grey Bravo or Aristocrate earl grey. It's more citrus-y than most earl greys. ~ Cheers.

Hi! Azadeh,

      Thank you for your beautiful poem. This is the 1st Haiku poem I read on IC. Here is my favorite verses:

my people’s anger, my peace
my guilt being so free

I share your sentiment.

Thank you and take care!
