Janus-faced, two views.
Looking back, gazing ahead
Panoramic sight.
Comes a time in life
Years behind grow numerous
Tilt balance toward past.
Seesaw-like what’s up
View of future, contemplate
Time of less is more.

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

Excellent piece–I especially like the final line; so true that “time of less is more”…
Many thanks for your comment.
Most welcome.
“Time of less, is more…” That is just a perfect way to understand life, especially as we grow a bit older 🙂 The balancing act of life and of every day is a lot like this: looking back, gazing ahead ~ and trying to balance all that can be seen behind us while forgetting to think about what’s ahead can be quite difficult…this haiku a great reminder. Thank you.
Thanks for your comment. I’ve thought further and consider living in that point in the center of before and after would be a lovely gift.
Really nice one!
Thanks for your comment, Lynn.
