April ode - part 2

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.


******************************************
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

    1. Thanks Shilpa :) I generally compose the Haiku and then if I find any apt image to go with it on google, I use it. Sometimes though it is the other way around...
