I sit, awaiting
The unique joy of week’s end
Such tranquility
Tag: Daily 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.
My goal: to post at least one haiku a day.
Wednesday
Now, the week’s center
Mystical place of balance
Sunlight drifts forwards
Weekend
And so it begins
This weekend thing of filled time
Just different stuff
Time flies
Time is flying past,
At least I find myself in
Blessed company
Awake
Air gently cools skin
Comfortable warmth from loved ones
Sleep slowly removed
Seeking
Vibrancy I crave
Seeking learning and richness
Moving across life
Imminent spring-time
Weak though I feel,
Steps forward, grasps the future.
Embrace tomorrow.
Renewal
Blossoms bursting forth
Another awakening
The sleepers awake
Mortality
Our mortality
Brutally enforced mandate
The demands of time
Early Cherry Blossoms
Movement calmly slows
This winter’s gently calm sun.
New cherry blossoms
