Clandestive Vs Phantasmagoria

Clandestine affair
Phantasmagoria trailed
Plans drawn thoughtfully
***
And Clandestine done
Phantasmagoria trailed

Memories cherished

  2. After referring to dictionary,I could get a faint understanding of the Haikus written with imagination.

    1. Thanks sir...
      I tried to mean this:

      "It was a clandestine affair. They planned something. As they planned, they were able to envision how it would be (Phantasmagoria). Later, the plan was executed. What remained was the memories which trailed in their minds (Phantasmagoria again)"

      I hope that I was able to convey this thought...

  3. i like how you kept the mid line the same...
    and the first lines near the same, but evoked quite different feelings....

  4. Hmm, rhyming, but trifle difficult to get to the root of what you intend to convey

    1. I wanted to convey this:
      "It was a clandestine affair. They planned something. As they planned, they were able to envision how it would be (Phantasmagoria). Later, the plan was executed. What remained was the memories which trailed in their minds (Phantasmagoria again)"

      I hope I did justice.

      Thanks Anil :)

  5. Hello greetings.

    I had to refer to the dictionary to understand the meaning of Phantasmagoria . A jaw breaker indeed.

    Clandestine affairs always end in Phantasmagoria and cherished long after the Clandestine affair is done.

    Best wishes

  17. Your haiku relate nicely to each other - two concepts bouncing off each other like molecules
