This morning’s calmness
I always feel at peace here
The presence of home
I hope your Friday or productive and effective.
Tag: haiku
I started writing haiku in my junior high creative writing class. After high school, though, when I started studying the Beat Poets, and Kerouac in particular, my fondness for this art form grew. I tend to focus mostly on the 5-7-5 style, but occasionally I explore further.
Starlight and Mist
The mist of my breath
Intertwined with the starlight
My flickering dreams
Happy Pi Day
A circle’s beauty
Returning into itself
Stable proportions
An lingering dream of mine
An old life goal of mine: explore the country in a decent camper. Not a monstrous RV, rather, a modestly sized one. Perhaps a custom van, though one with a bathroom feels nice. My first version: a camper shell on a pickup truck.
Sleeping close, up against nature, the world’s beauty elicits powerful feelings. All my fear proximal and organized: glorious! Driving up to my desired place, parking, leaping out, exploring without pitching a tent an unpacking? Delightful!
Though the notion yet lingers amidst the darkness of my subconscious, I’ve hardly acted upon it. I’ve owned a few vans and pickup trucks, not one outfitted for camping. No campers installed. No sinks or cook tops. No great motivation, I guess. Yet, up it pops, from time-to-time.
Dreams of journeying
Sleeping right next to wonders
A personal touch
