    Pramoda,
    There's only one haiku. The last line is purposely separated to give effect to Icarus plunging to earth.

    Wow! I haven't thought of Icarus for awhile. Well, since the wax on his feathers melted. Thanks for dropping by my nook. I appreciate it.

    Oooh. I like this. I think they way you separated the last line worked perfectly for the "anticipated" end of this story. Wonderful.
