Gently I’m Aging 

Gently I’m aging

My hair may now be thinning

But my heart is not 
I will facing growing older. There’s so much fear laden upon aging. I want to see reality. 

Self Hatred’s Misery 

Self-hatred’s pain 

<

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Can’t escape the mind 

A Haiku for a rainy Wednesday

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>This one didn’t get published for some reason. I do love it, so am sharing it now.

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Rain’s sound consumes me

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Voices carried through the night

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Soothing my soul

A Morning Meditation: Jealousy


Today’s Haiku:

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Focus lost with ease

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Jealousy’s dangerous voice

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Broken clarity 

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>It is an easy trap, losing myself into comparisons. The resulting lack of focus damages my journey. Seek, then, clarity and my eyes pointed towards love. 

My family, trampled by the flu 

My son has pretty much recovered from the latest stomach bug…now it’s my wife’s turn 

Abruptly awake 

Weary of microbes cruel work 

Fearful I am next

Eternal Motion 

I had fun with the image for this haiku 

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Yin and Yang, motion 

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Opposites seeking balance 

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Infinity’s quest 

Believe in Yourself: A Haiku 

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Believe in yourself

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>There is power in dreaming 

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Live: energizing

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>

<

p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>*I’m saddened when self-doubt cripples dreams. 

Parenting Woes

This winter’s night calls

Unasked for and painful gifts

The vomit fairy

Ah, awake with a sick kid. 

An unpleasant night time filling my time for rest. 

Tuesday night’s haiku 

As the light now fades

This frantic day now finds peace

Music liberates 

A Monday Haiku 

Monday brings so much

p style=”font-family:"font-size:21.6px;”>For some, opportunity 

<

p style=”font-family:"font-size:21.6px;”>For others, challenge
