a sense of haiku

503. heavenly light show

that stained glass window

basking in the rising sun

saints inside aglow 🦊❤️

The ever changing view from my apartment’s balcony window is an endless source of fuel for my imagination and feelings of gratitude. 🦊❤️

502. mirror, mirror…

at age seventy

little danny looks at me

from my hall mirror 🦊❤️

I swear… there are moment of yesteryear that are as clear as today. 🦊❤️

501. everything is haiku

a herd of greenness

grazing in a frozen field

huddled to stay warm 🦊❤️

I went to bed last night with no title for this post. I woke this morning and a surprise title was waiting… and it didn’t even wake me up. 🦊❤️ (Dedicated to a trailblazing friend)

Today’s “your turn tuesday 29” marks a number of important milestones. First and most importantly, it celebrates three years of being alcohol free - 🙏. Secondly it is my 500th consecutive daily haiku blog post. Thirdly it is the first haiku challenge of 2022. I intentionally used a pretty odd and interesting photograph for today’s challenge. I’ve learned that the weirder the photo - the greater the verses that are submitted. Join the celebrations and submit a verse!!
