To the sinking sun
Wind trilling in the rigging
A final farewell
…oOo…
The sun’s final rays
Transformed by the ocean’s trill
Into golden notes
The prompts for this week’s Ronovan Writes weekly haiku challenge are “trill and final”
This is a photo I took on Sunday after feasting on fish, chips and tiger prawns at our favorite eatery. Summer sunset in Perth is wonderful when there are a few clouds. A perfect end to a wonderful day. Especially since I bought a huge resin pelican earlier on which gained me much attention. Read here if you want to see this impressive object and the thrilling tale behind it!
Great photo TJ!

Love your haiku duo. The first haiku is perfect for a tribute to the sailboat in the sunset, but the second haiku is perfect for the sunset itself. Hmmm! Great post!

I love how you used trilling. I was thinking about the sound of the wind through our front gate. In the end I didn’t go in that direction so I can appreciate even more that you did.
