Inspiration comes from odd places, the controvesy of the Iranian election, and the response of the Iranian people, have brought a couple of haikus out of my mind.

Why haiku?
It can fit into a Twitter post.

Weaving a thick rope
Each bold sacrifice a thread,
Strangle Tyranny

The far shores reveal
A familiar ring in ear,
Liberty is near

As winter to spring
A tyranny’s usurping,
By the bird’s chirping

In the fearful night
The brave birds twitting announce
A coming spring light

Spring colors in air
To the world we declare
This dissension is fair

Rage at all people
Endanger the protected
Death to innocent.
