haiku - daybreak

my alarm clock
shatters quiet sleep -
day breaks.


For a quieter daybreak, please visit Crafty Green Poet.


Daybreak for One Deep Breath


PS - Haiku Scotland recently accepted five of my haiku to appear in their September and December 2007 issues.

I like your use of "shatters" and "breaks" together -- that is how my alarm feels to me too. And congratulations on the Haiku Scotland acceptances -- this is awesome news!!

Juliet, you have my sympathy, but let me tell you

3 am
the bright face
of the alarm clock

Nice work.

That alarm is jarring...they need to come up with something better to wake us up! Great haiku. :~)

Oh, now there's an image I can sympathize with - alarm clocks shattering the morning quiet. Very nice work.

I so like that "day breaks." You've made it fit so perfectly. I feel it some days. I do.
