Hands Around The World

 
As an active participant of THE DAILY HAIKU, a global haiku poetry group on Facebook, we are invited to create poems based on a prompt.  When the suggestion of "friendship" came up I burst like a volcano with a dozen poems. Here is a sample:
  
                         ******
hands around the world 
typing heartfelt stories that 
touch each other's hearts 
 
                                 ******
THE DAILY HAIKU 
poets who write from the soul 
listen with their hearts 
 
                                            ****** 
share seasons of life 
poems spring up tears 
share our lives 
 
           ******
kind harbingers of  
stories, seasons, joys, sorrows 
light in the darkness 
 
              ******
here or gone they touch 
our lives, fill our hearts with love 
our cup runneth over 
 
                     ****** 
                                                            friends, so far apart 
traveling within, removes miles 
and I am with you 
 
               ******
waves come crashing up 
stirring thoughts of friends seaside 
standing together 
 
              *****
there is a path 
that waits for all haiku guests 
footsteps in the snow 


******
sound of giggles gasps  
and groans as we read and write  

haiku from new friends
