During my extensive Haiku practice, I've occasionally done a series of haiku around a theme. Here is one such theme:
Colors~
Look! A red herring
its scent meant to throw you off
but you followed me
an orange sunset
crimson and gold in the sky
warmth welcoming night
yellow light of hope
in the midst of night, a sun
dispels the darkness
no more am I green
the naiveté of youth
or envy of age
a spirit of blue
burning fire cool to the touch
proceed with caution
purple's majesty
a lake's watercolor dusk
mimicking the night
indigo glasses
paint my world a hue of new
midnight at midday

Maybe some other time I'll post another series...
