Haiku 1 & 2 Poem by Rajesh Thankappan

Haiku 1 & 2

(1)
the Gulmohar tree
unveils a red tapestry-
seasoning the spring.

(2)
life is a shadow
of what we were yesterday
and that of tomorrow.

(The present, though real, is a shadow of what we were yesterday and is also like a shadow of what we evolved into tomorrow.)
