A Sunday morning haiku

August 18, 2019 Carl SetzerLeave a comment

As dawn climbs the sky

How do i better myself?

Birds sing their answer

It’s a challenge for me to focus on the future, to create a vision. It’s much easier to live in this moment. But it leaves gaps in my psyche I try to fill. This is perpetual for me.

I must fill my soul

With positive energy
