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: Unbeatable Foe

on January 4, 2017

Alert says high winds.
Rising sun rims clouds with pink
Weather paradox

I hear wind howling.
Trees tossed wildly,Ā  beaming sun
Teasing me to choose

Play it safe or go?
Take shopping cart, walk to store
Or curl up and read

    “Alert says high winds.

    That is the “starter” line that first came to mind when I looked at the sky. I hadn’t considered how it sounded. Thanks for your “alerting” me to that.

  4. Or curl up and read once you’ve braved the wind and got safely back šŸ™‚
