echo

Challenge

when I dare listen ~ the silence echoes a name ~ that I’ve yet to learn — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

no promises made ~ no answers in the echoes ~ only empty space — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

I keep on drifting ~ in the echo of your words ~ sensing your presence — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

a tinge of sadness ~ in the echo of your song ~ drifting through the night — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

I keep on drifting ~ in the echo of your words ~ sensing your presence

in its mockery ~ the parrot’s voice echoes mine ~ inescapably

when I dare listen ~ the silence echoes a name ~ that I’ve yet to learn

pomegranate laugh ~ echoes across the oceans ~ where it will settle

when I repeat you ~ without beginning or end ~ you stroll my mindscape

you echo my thoughts ~ in such a beautiful way ~ it surprises me
