war ruins… suddenly the cicadas stop
Author’s note: The photo was taken (and the haiku was composed) in a bombed out hotel complex on the Croatian coast last year.

Wow~! Fear lives~!
Gorgeous haiku – stunning picture
How often I've had that feeling at reading war haiku…the depths would silence even the cicadas…there are no words. Thanks for this one.
Thank you for such a vivid picture.
I thought the haiku was poignant in itself, but the photo adds another level of depth. Most excellent haiga.
David Serjeant, I like your work—great photo, great haiku! Uneasily, felt like was there.
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Wow!
