The ribbons of thought,
Twining into ideas,
Now become actions.


The author's comments:
I got this poem from the thought of how thoughts twist like ribbons and then braid into ideas, and ideas become actions.

I love how you convey such a deep emotion within three sentences of a haiku. AMAZING :)

Complex without seeming so, because of how it all ties together so simply!

Thanks for the feedback! I know I didn't think I was very good at writing haikus either!

I agree...most haikus dont seem to have a message, or train of thought, but this does!

Question Authority.

It is so hard to write haikus! And even harder to write haikus that make sense! Haha (I am NOT a very good haiku writer) really great. :) Keep it up!
