The inevitability of life...
Good one, Bill -- though seems slightly odd for the theme "colour"
wishes,
devika
great image
john
yes, a great New York image
Bill, your haiku posted lately are powerful. I believe I read the last one somewhere before. Zhanna P. Rader
i like the use o the term 'pulses' here
much love
gillena
Actually, Devika, "theme" overstates it a bit. The requirement was simply to include a color in the poem.
Thanks, John and Dalloway. Yes, a common enough city sight, but you can also find it out on the highway.
Zhanna,great to hear from you. You will have seen this one if you participated in the same kukai, and I presume you did.
That's the word that made it for me, Gillena.
O.K. That's where I saw it. And it was on my list of favorites. I might have even voted for it. I do not have a blog, but I read Vaughn's blog from time to time, and I clicked on your name there to get here. :)

Loved 'pulses red'

There is that "feeling" when the ambulance light throbs; that sense is in your words, Bill. _m
Zhanna, glad you could make it. I've been enjoying your work for quite a while.
Gautami and Magyar, my thanks.
ah yes... all the anxiety and hope of an emergency ride contained in this haiku
I like your "anxiety and hope," Polona.
I read this also, and I did like it. I felt sad, because I saw there a sick man or woman, - pulsing, I hope!
Summer night here means that because of light nights this red pulse is not so "strong", but the noise?
There's a great feeling of tension in this, perhaps of the heat of the summer night, the anxiety that ambulances always raise even if they aren't coming for you. The word 'pulses' and the colour red. Very atmospheric.
Red is also a "hot" color, tikkis.
A very thoughtful reading, jem.
Thanks, both.
