September Heights - Day 13. Symphony



Day 13. Symphony
Walls tremble crashing
Blood bangs on crescendoed wave
Breathless on the shore

    Wow, very dramatic! The second line really packs a punch.

    What a horrendous death they faced.
    A tough read.

      Aw Happy - Always fascinating what others bring to what we write. I can think of many horrendous deaths that this haiku might evoke - yet they were not in my mind when writing. Thank you for stopping and being moved :)

    I live near the ocean and feel the power of the heavy surf in your haiku! It is quite a symphony, Well done!

    I like it, but I'm not sure why...I guess because there's a lot going on and I don't know what it is:)

    Let me guess: Vaughan Williams' Sea Symphony?

    Is this a domestic violence symphony?
