I know the title says april ode while the post is for May, but these Haiku are inspired by the April A2Z heights challenge at Haikuheights. So I think its only fair that they be noted under "April ode"
The prompts of inspiration are : Grasshopper, Hunter, Incense, Jasmine, Koi pond, Lily, open prompt : Yoga

Still fiddling around,
(c)old lessons gone with the wind-
fabled grasshopper
******************************************
Mind's eye wide open
heart throbs wildly, pace quickens-
hunting for lost love.
******************************************
Seeking divine help -
fervent prayers in fragrant smoke;
faith, hope swirl around.
faith, hope swirl around.
******************************************
Scent of the heavens
silken soft petals unfold;
Behold jasmine bloom.
******************************************
Color riot breaks -
glistening playground beckons,
delightful waters.
******************************************
Gracefully she smiles,
elegant and diva-like-
pristine white beauty.
******************************************
Ancient wisdom heals
soothes, strengthens frail mind, body-
timeless breath of life
