The Morning Glories

The Morning Glories - form Summary

Three-line Haiku, Focused Image

This three-line haiku presents a single, focused image: morning glories entwine an old gate. The haiku compresses a fleeting seasonal observation into a precise, sensory moment. Its brevity leaves causal and emotional links unstated, inviting readers to infer whether the flowers suggest neglect, protection, or gentle reclamation of the threshold. The poem’s small scale makes the image itself the source of mood and meaning.
