When Leaf Met Crystal (A Haiku, Kimmy Ku’s) (poem) by Kimmy Van Kooten on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on December 4, 2007

A wide spectrum of thought and emotion
Is it love. . . . .
Or is it just how life is. . . .
Piercing. . . .
Revealing. . .from virgin snow
To rotting leaves
Left me wondering.
Superb

Sounds like a metaphor for all of us. Living, aging, rotting, beautiful, slapdash, cynical, irreverent, brilliant ... like finding a secret path that leads out to a cliff overlooking the ocean and getting a blast of fresh air in the face. As always ... rocking the Casbah with panache and poetic cleavage. (-:

A string of snow beads that sparkle with just a dash of fire that does not melt but only glows in the comfort of the poets heart...not sure where that came from but it just was how I pictured these ku's.
