A Haiku for a rainy Wednesday

This one didn’t get published for some reason. I do love it, so am sharing it now. 

Rain’s sound consumes me

Voices carried through the night

Soothing my soul 

A Morning Meditation: Jealousy


Today’s Haiku:

Focus lost with ease

Jealousy’s dangerous voice

Broken clarity 


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 

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.
