World Haiku Series 2022 (123) Haiku by Vladimir Ludvig (Croatia)

Haiku by Vladimir Ludvig

a flock of sheep–

in the vacuum cleaner vortex

of the mother nature

dominoes —

falling trees

with the roar of chainsaws

new hotel —

the sea coast of crabs covers

the concrete beach

space station —

tearful eyes of the crew

to flashes of war

temperature rise —

Earth’s heavy breathing

coughing the hurricanes

lungs of the Earth —

human pandemic stopped

disease of forests

the great green wall —

stop the Sahara expansion

by afforestation

the planet defense —

missile collision

with the asteroid’s surface

a step toward Mars —

humanity at the edge

of survival

touch of the sun–

father of the planet

gently wakes life
