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

Haiku: Change In the Air

on September 21, 2016

Sweeping broom brisk sounds
Someone clearing summer dust
Moving on to fall

Open window breeze
Signs farewell to scorching heat
Welcomes season change

Children back in school
Parents endless tasks increase
Grandma takes a nap

    Yes to naps. I should have spent more time doing justthat. Seems to me, I learned nothing from Mr. McCafferty (he’s my cat)!

  3. Nice that Grama takes a nap xx

  4. I love the humour at the end of this Ina! A welcome respite coming in with the new season šŸ™‚

    I envy your haiku composing abilities. I don’t think people really appreciate how gifted one has to be in order to express ideas and show ‘pictures’ in such a succinct manner. To select the exact and proper words in that compressed form is an art not to be underestimated. The three parts make this one such a delightful whole.

    The end line of Grandma napping brought a smile to my face šŸ™‚ I imagined my grandma who used to sleep with her mouth wide open after an hour of watching television. xx
