haiku my heart

 

the light of winter

falls from life's open branches

my path crosses yours

 

 

thank you for being

 a comfort through all seasons

for shining your light and singing your song

through darkness

through sunlight and between the stars

for days that are graced with

your path crossing mine

welcome home

haiku my heart

 

through the eyes of love

gratitude sweetening all hearts

everything is new

 

 

so simple,

to pause and breathe deeply,

to meet each unfolding moment

with a grateful heart.

thank you for gracing friday 

with your beauty,

your ability to distill life down to

 the most thoughtful essence.

haiku truly are 

tiny shared miracles.

i am so humbled to return

to the circle of your light.

haiku my heart

 

yes i will take you

in unbeautiful moments

i will love again

 

 

to love life, 

to love it even when you have no stomach for it

and everything you've held dear

crumbles like burnt paper in your hands,

your throat filled with the silt of it.

 

when grief sits with you, its tropical heat

thickening the air, heavy as water

more fit for gills than lungs;

when grief weighs you like your own flesh

only more of it,

an obesity of grief,

you think, 

"how can a body withstand this?"

 

then you hold life like a face

between your palms,

a plain face,

no charming smile,

no violet eyes,

and you say, yes, i will take you

i will love you, again.

haiku my heart

 

a song of autumn

hearts willing to win the sky

lost then filled with light

 

 

things falling apart

is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing.

we think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem,

but the truth is that things don't really get solved.

they come together

and they fall apart.

then they come together again

and fall apart again.

it's just like that.

the healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen:

room for grief,

for relief, for misery,

for joy."

 

Pema Chodron

long may love shine
