Haiku Wednesday ...Love...

The topic this week for Sensational Haiku Wednesday is fittingly the word 'Love'.  I had just watched the 1955 movie Summertime with Katherine Hepburn and Rossano Brazzi..


Touching clear blue skies
Olive trees pattern the hill
An old stone chapel


Two hearts with claret
melodies chained together
A nucleus forms



Whispers of coupling 
Lighting a torch of madness
Exciting the earth  
  
Essence of true love
Adventure of a lifetime
or a fool's Eden

    You get the grand prize this week. I LOVE this and the last line is a zinger... "or a fool's Eden". Oh, may I forever remain a fool, then. :)

    Fabulous set of haiku! I also adore that Hepburn photo - everyone should experience an embrace like that. Well done!
