Secrets (Haiku)

by Graeme Fielden

Whisper: Softly speak

stuttered words. Fade to darkness.

Haltered breathÂ…SecretsÂ…

I always loved Haiku poems. This one is very well crafted. I like the way it breaks, and the images it boldly paints. Well done.

Refreshingly different as haikus go, especially with the punctuation Graeme. Would make an excellent opening poem to a short story or novel.

Striking in its definition while so brief. That is what I like so much about Haiku. Great descriptive phrase, "Haltered breath".

You really capture well the whole intrigue and mystery behind the whispering of those secretive words. And in such few, well-chosen words. Great!

Silenced and shadowy and filled with dark secrets. Well crafted and excellent read.
