Love this autumn day
Which has crested into night
Now rest, finally
Category: Haiku
I adore the simplicity, as well as the challenge of Haiku. The constraints focus my mind, seeking out the essence of the moment, feeling, notion, distilling it to brilliant singularity.
November’s Theme: Gratitude

p style=”font-family:"”>We focus on gratitude

A Wind Transformed: A Haiku
Wind’s movement graceful
The earlier fortitude
Now a gentle song
A Poet’s Response To “Houston Dad Handles Bully Beautifully”
This haiku came to me after reading “Houston Dad Handles Bully Beautifully“.
When facing evil
Focusing fully on grace
Always seek to grow
Grace can accomplish many great things, as it requires courage to step forward in such a way.
We love to quarrel so
We love to quarrel
Satisfied with petty spite
Yet the sun will rise
Seeking Growth
With deepest rigor
I am always seeking growth
Autumn leaves still fall
Looking nightward

Nighttime Dominates: An Evening Haiku
Nighttime dominates
Sleep continues its demands
I cannot resist
In today’s cold fog: a haiku
In today’s cold fog
Sunlight never reached the ground
Winter approaches
Winter’s Edge
Life is beautiful
Yet also cruelly brutal
I feel winter’s edge
The strange dichotomies of life. Finding beauty with the deep sadness upon friend’s wings. At times I feel an awkward wonder at what our heart’s hold at the same time.
