Ready for winter

city in winter –
loneliness sweeps through
the terraces
.
NaHaiWriMo prompt: home(s)
1
winter grass
feeding the lost pigeons
2
winter reeds
a dove becomes
my friend
.
NaHaiWriMo prompt: peace
Interesting to be reminded today that doves and pigeons,
together with the olive branch have been used as
symbols for peace, love, lust as well as the human and Holy spirit since
antiquity, and featured widely in ancient Greek
mythology, Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism and other religions
and cultures.

On another note, haiku #1 is a two-liner. I did try to twist it
into the more usual three- and one- line shapes, but
it wouldn’t listen to me.
