Lovely Ron’s haiku prompt words this week:

Heart & Need

I thought I would try a few different takes.

First a 3/5/3 haiku

Without care
A heart can wither
Needing love

Ritu 2017

Then a 5/7/5 haiku

What my heart desires
You, me, alone, together
Celebrating love

Ritu 2017

And a 5/7/5/7/7 Tanka

A pulsating heart
Running on passionate fumes
Needs a love refill
Attraction will light the flame
Only love will fill the void.

Ritu 2017
