Grace: A Haiku

Carl SetzerLeave a comment

Here is my contribution to today’s Word of the Day challenge: Grace.

The Grace Of Fresh Snow

I look at the night

Upon freshly fallen snow

I’m struck by the grace

It’s a beautiful, snowy night here in Seattle. It feels wonderful, though I dread tomorrow’s commute.

Seeking Positive Energy

I must fill my soul

With positive energy 

So I exude grace 

What you feed your soul becomes the core of your being. Be thoughtful.

This haiku came to me after reading “Houston Dad Handles Bully Beautifully“.

Grace can accomplish many great things, as it requires courage to step forward in such a way.
