I discovered a poetry style called Haiku today and fell in love with it. The poems are short, sweet, and to the point. Following is the poem I came up with. I call it:
‘Fate or Folly?’
cocoon cracks open
the butterfly’s dance cut short
by a silken web
I’m a visual girl, so after writing my poem I went in search of a picture to illustrate the surface meaning of ‘Fate or Folly’ and came up with the picture below. Of course the poem’s underlying meaning would construe quite a different picture – one which can’t be captured on film.
