There is a dark Forest
Run into the trees following my eyes
I hear a girl voice…

Haiku 5.7.5
Inspired by the words of the song “A Forest” Written by ©Robert Smith -THE CURE
Hope the New Year found you all well!
Today post is my first Haiku of the 2019 and I have to say that I wrote this Haiku in a whim right after I read the Haiku posted by my dear friend Cyranny, you can read it at her Blog Cyranny’s Cove! She inspired me to create my Haiku using the words of one of my favorite songs, I also illustrated the Haiku with one of my older watercolor paintings (Prints available in my Shop!) I loved to do this and to write my Haiku I actually played a bit with the words and I have changed the sequence from the official lyrics but I was able to keep the sense and meaning of the words in the original song! Check it out this is the beautiful song “A Forest” of The Cure…I found a video that has the lyric on screen!
I think this is a great idea if you love music and love to write Haiku it is pretty challenging to create a Haiku from the words of a song…Sure it is a good practice I suggest you to pick your favorite song and try! What do you think?

This painting is amazing, Carolina. First I thought because of the colors which would fit perfectly into my living room but also for the meaning and the metaphoric message.

That is true. It has a calming or even comforting effect. It holds a lot of meanings just what is needed is found. How much is the print?

It is so cool to see that my silly haiku inspired you, Carolina 🙂 I had fun writing it, and I have a feeling it won’t be the last! It such a fun variation of the traditional haiku… Oh, and I love the painting you chose to accompany yours! Such a mysterious piece…
