Nightfall

the evening peels ~ away bright colours of day ~ sleep is in blue-grey — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Little one

scoped you from the sea ~ from the stormy grey oceans ~ brought you back to me — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa0

Soft

your day wears a shirt ~ of pure winter-grey cashmere ~ brushed against my heart — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Ambiance

wishing you were here ~ between the sun and the moon ~ my moods grey and pink — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa — Barcelona 2018/09

Across the bay

oceans of greyness ~ a land longing for sunshine ~ four degrees and fog — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Vast

these are the days that ~ I get lost in your greyness ~ my horizons moved — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Observation

sometimes colourless ~ a simple grey reflection ~ at times sparked with blue — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Located

on that single day ~ I found the blue that is you ~ between the green and grey — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Sway

in a sea of grey ~ so easy to drift away ~ and so hard to stay — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

here a broken child ~ there a piece of grey driftwood ~ this day’s gatherings — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Spectres

green on grey on blue ~ shadows playing on my mind ~ mirrored in a gaze — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

His greyness

the cloudy grey skies ~ reflected on a grey world ~ multiple grey moods — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Access

across the divide ~ you reach to me with your eyes ~ closing vast spaces — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Here and there

from elsewhere enters ~ a still greyness in your gaze ~ from right here they smile — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Coated

beneath the layers ~ so many more shades of grey ~ that I want to touch — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Hiding

there are grey days ~ that we need to flee life’s glare ~ slip into the fog — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Deep

captured by a gaze ~ can’t fathom the depth it holds ~ all those shades of grey — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Grey day

when the fog rolls in ~ emotions becoming grey ~ the world closes in — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Fleeting

with too little time ~ for the grey to penetrate ~ I leave you behind — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Dayjob

on the dull grey days ~ when another hat is warn ~ this poet is missed — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Stumble

on a midnight train ~ never leaving the station ~ I fall into grey — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Riveted

sun bursts through the clouds ~ but greyness embraces me ~ transfixed in a gaze — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

I disappear

in the winter grey ~ all clear perspective is lost ~ a blurred horizon — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Grey on grey

on a rainy day ~ reflecting in the ocean ~ the softest, warm greys — Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa

Found & lost

your eyes finding mine ~ I wander in their greyness ~ wonder what you see — © Lize Bard @ Haiku out of Africa
