Hello, Pettytalk. Welcome to the thread. That's one beautiful and profound haiku you wrote.

There's just this little detail: we're trying to write them with 5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second and 5 again in the last line. Not that it turns out that way every time, but it should be close to that. That's why I'll take liberty to start from your last 5 syllables. 

 

pure, so rare so wise

at our mortal confusion  

eternity smiles

So there is an end

to all that comes with a beginning

and also there's a middle

path among dualities --

sharp, the razor's edge
