A new day a new haiku
Hedged in on all sides
I stay within the compound
Hatching escape plans
Nestling deep in
The over growing garden
A lost hideaway
A voice in the dark
Should I listen or reject?
Are you on my side?
Where does the sun go
When it falls into the ground
Does it make a sound?
Put your paw into
My pink and glorious glove
Speak not of fox bane
Some days never end
The edge of the sky shines through
Slowly shadows fade
Well at least with cows
You know they don’t understand
Humans? Not so sure
Grey gives way to gold
Gilded grasses glisten, glow
In graceful graphite
Between bent branches
I finally found myself
Under glowing skies
If I lay to rest
All my inner saboteurs
What is left of me?
Don’t over think it
Let it all flow naturally
And just simply be
The sweet heady scent
Tumbles down in fragrant clouds
I am home again
Green growing to gold
Barley barely beginning
Sunlight alchemy
If I sing to trees
They never seem to listen
A long lost howling
Slowly I will stack
Hour on hour, day upon day
Then the winter comes
There is no ending
Forget the destination
Embrace the journey
Tell me your story
How, why, when did you get here?
Where are you going?
Everyone creates
Carving days into a life
So be creative
If I lay aside
All hopes and expectations
Who do I become?
Just lay back and let
The route of least resistance
Carry me away
Wild flowers are free
They can’t be sown or planted
They grow naturally
Forget all your plans
Surrender expectations
Be right here right now
Molten light pours out
The hillside is cast in gold
It lives on in me
Clinging still tighter
To this crusty crumbling cliff
Wait for the land slip
