Rhythm II (reprise)

As the music fades
with the rhythm of my drum
I am still dancing

Haiku for Tuesday rain

There is sun today
or at very least promise
amidst the grey cloud

Tri-Haiku XXXVIII (Friday)

And so to Friday
for a switch-off come lunchtime
into the weekend

And breathe deep, relax
soak up the fact that this is
deliciously mine

And so it will be
to use wisely and enjoy
pending the new week

Best Thursday Haiku

And here for Thursday
three lines to herald a day
and wish it the best

Tri-haiku XXXVII (Essence)

Yesterday it rained
quite persistently throughout
so inside we stayed

Today though it's dry
and the birds are singing sweet
songs about the day

So outside we'll go
to breathe in the world around
and feel its essence

writing a haiku each day
that always inspires

Moments captured and cherished
Forging memories

Clever use of words
in three lines of verse
Just enough sometimes

I'll write a haiku
most days to capture what life
shows me of itself

Anticipating
quietness, the solitude
of morning greets me
