Shrouding sinner past,
Skeletons shout from cupboard,
Travelling through hell.
Rain, rain, fiery rain,
Demons sing death lullaby,
Shroud me in your soul.
This Haiku is shared with Haiku Heights and the Prompt is Shroud.
Wow! You did a great job on this prompt. I love the first haiku the most.

DeleteThere's a melody here.. I sense it in the sing song lines, rain rain, fiery rain. Hello Amrit, it's been a while since my last visit. Hopefully I can catch up but I know everything I've missed from your blog is absolutely amazing. I just know. You are a brilliant writer, and you have such a way with words. It's refreshing as always. Looking forward to reading your previous posts! All in due time of course.
