song of a skylark
echoes from heaven’s meadow
wind in my hair
song of a skylark
even robins stop to listen
sweetens the air
echoes from heaven’s meadow
imagine her lip-singing
mes chères mamans
wind in my hair
one dove in-flight, startles me
heart skips a beat

This TROIKU is a new form of haiku created by my mentor, Chèvrefeuilles at CDHK
http://chevrefeuillescarpediem.blogspot.com
French translation of Dove is Colombe which is my late mother’s name
Written to the prompt on my mentor Chèvrefeuille at CDHK Carpe Diem #1648 skylark (hibari)
I love the rhyme in the last lines of the first two haiku, Cheryl-Lynn – was that intentional? Birds singing and on the wing make my heart skip a beat – wonderful creatures!

No it was not intentional at all! I was going to change it since haiku are not supposed to rhyme but the word just fit.
