Maryam Amin’s Three Haikus

Haiku I


Red hibiscus blooms,

swaying in the summer breeze—

beauty takes its time.

Haiku II


Silver moon above,

rooftops breathe a borrowed glow—

night learns how to rest.

Haiku III


Raindrops drift slowly,

small rivers across cold grass—

the sky learns to weep.
