poetry, prose, and photography
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.
My goal: to post at least one haiku a day.
Today’s One-Word Challenge (by Fandango) prompt is “energize”. This one might be more of a senryu than a haiku, but in today’s vernacular, “haiku” is often referred to as the 17 syllable poems in the 3 lines (5-7-5), so, here we are.
Tea is my preferred way to caffeinate, though I’m fond of coffee, too. A cup of tea on my couch, ideally with a book: a delightful way to start the day.
seeking to energize within the morning darkness slowly sipping tea
the glories of spring
time flowing over petals
memories calling
walking in sunlight
abundant cherry blossoms
beyond morning rains
walking in the sun
the grace of flowers fills me
with delightful joy
underneath the rain
signs of spring bursting forwards
no one else walking
Bubbles!
upon the spring breeze
joyful squeals of childhood
laden with pure grace
springtime's grace
gentle breeze's motion
waiting for the rain
sunlight through clouds and leaves the song of spring
the day free of rain
glories of spring continue
sunlight through the clouds
moving through rainfall
sunlight's grace hidden by clouds
new cherry blossoms
