Following on from the first part of my essay about my trip to Russia, I wrote these haiku this morning, and I thought I’d share them with you.
Red Square
black-booted soldiers
stomping watchfulness over
one already dead
St. Basil’s Cathedral
rainbow-coloured twists
intricate architecture
st basil’s stands tall
Gorky Park
wind of change echoes
as we walk through Gorky Park
following moscva
Pioneer Camp
pioneer kids greet
perform show of song and dance
hearts and souls soar high
The Kremlin
behind kremlin wall
great tsar bell remains silent
cracked when fire broke out
