Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A slightly dusty 2 o'clock...
Time and times just slightly out of line...
Dust to dust...

Haiku Bones #16 ~ Two O'Clock
~
Two feet for walking
Two organs to hear and see
Two arms seek embrace
~
Two hands to create
Two shoulders to cry upon
Two knees to kneel
~
Two mournful bell tones
Two hours beyond deep midnight
Two o'clock curfew
~
I measure out my life with haiku. My camera films my soul. ~ Gemma Wiseman

interesting take on the theme. I like the twingling of image and text. Here be mine.
One mind to ignore the curfew... if I stay awake long enough!
Gemma, this is a lovely collation of reflections. You've done well! (I'm baffled by the prompt at the moment and don't know if I'll ever become "unbaffled.")
Creative approach; I enjoyed your poem!
Intriguing verses!

2 o'clock is a perfect time for contemplation and you have set a timeless chime....
