Daily Haiku - Island Earth

Today is the beginning of week four of these daily Haiku which signals a change in theme.
After focusing on traditional Haiku (usually about nature, and the seasons) I wanted to change it up to try a more modern style of Haiku by reflecting on images around technology.
This image of the space walk is awesome, and the main feeling I focused on in the Haiku was that of the emptiness of space that astronauts must feel, with the vast island bulk of earth suspended below them in the vacuum. This weeks Haiku are going to be tricky to balance the complexity of the subject, with the simplicity and low amount of words, in the form. I am going to try and focus on one idea/image to keep the Haiku focused while still resembling what a Haiku should be.
I have decided to challenge myself for the next month - until the 01st of July - to post a daily Haiku on Hive. Each week will have a different theme based on picture prompts from either Pixabay.com or Unsplash.com. This week's broad theme is technology.
Thanks for reading 🌿
