(Promise)
Many people tell
I’ll do it, promise! Although
few people keep it.
(Reality)
Whom reality
struck in heart- never promise
But do anyway.

Guess it’s human nature to make empty promises :(
Omo
It is- but realizing what is empty or full we need to learn for the better. :)

Wow! there’s so much truths in this Haiku. You say it so clearly. Yes, people promise but not keeping it. They just let it go astray. How sad for someone who expects it. It’s like waiting for an eternity to make the promise comes true. It’s better not to promise but do it, if you could.
A very nice Haiku and I love it for the great message worth pondering. Congrats for the 21st round! Keep going, buddy! :)
Omo
We better practice to do things while we can- human usually tend to promise and forget- we need to understand the priority and involve our self accordingly. All is matter when things done! :0)
Thank you BB! I’m looking forward to put more life-style in Haiku. ;)

Omo

Nicer and nicer! (Mad Hatter would say, taking his top hat and adding: Chapeau, dude! Hmmm. I don’t know about the dude word!)
You add Philosophy to Poetry!
Don’t be too harsh to human species, we are limited, sometimes we mean to make Promises true… Sometimes we are only mean! :) (Pun, pun, pun… Punish!!
(I’ve got you Elf!, keep out of the keyboard you funny, sonny of a gunny!!).
Omo
Long live Mad Hatter and the Chapeau! :):)
Yay- common P!
Pun is fun and promise isn’t for keeping it- either astray or else- fill it! We mean and we meant! ;)

It is the error of man to come up with the concept of promise. Our very own imperfection makes us unsuitable of its practice :-)
Omo
Thanks Walter, very nice point! :)
