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.
morning darkness
swirls around
memories
One day is done, four more to go as I transition out one career stop into another. Friday’s an ending and a beginning. I’m sad about the ending, but excited about the beginning. I’m opening a new chapter in my life. Blank pages to fill.
ah, cherry blossoms!
hints that spring is almost here
bold chattering birds
Through the threat of rain
Buffeted by winter’s wind
Hints that’s spring’s coming
Strange sounds of the night

Sun hidden by clouds
Walking in suburbia
Riotous birdsong

Inconceivable!
Well, I don’t think that word means
What you think it means
This morning’s haiku was inspired by one of my favorite movies.
Do you know which one?
boldness of vision
living the best possible life
longing for springtime
Find hope at endings
As they’re a new beginning
Always move forwards
As I move through another period of transition, I focus on the possible. I gain energy from that, driving me forwards. Yes, there are frustrations, challenges, and road blocks, but remember the goal. Always focus on moving forwards.
Grace and peace to you my friends!
