What a stunning photo! I'm not sure I can do Haiku My Heart Friday, but I'll do my best tomorrow!
Blessings to you, dear Rebecca.

Hi Rebecca. What a beautiful haiku - 'he becomes the sky' is stunning.

Fantastic photographs. The Haiku is beautiful. I need to know more, unless it is held in your own vault for safekeeping. Just beautiful all around.
Peace.

In the first picture, it almost seems as if the red line is arising from behind him. Your words and those pictures capture the very essence of blue by showing us the red, as well. There are so many layers to this one. So much given in so few words.

Here I am, again. Climbing out of stress to haiku is good. Very good.

That is really beautiful Rebecca-the way you have used the imagery from the photo to say so much.
Have a lovely weekend!

oh, incredible.
and how you are able to put these feelings into words.
you inspire me so.
( I hope you don't mind all the little notes coming to you now, today. belated, but sincere. things are crazier than crazy here. 2 of my daughters leave in a week or so , busy getting organized, etc etc. I find solace and peace in reading and writing but find only snippets to do it in lately. It's all good. Life is all good. Long stretched out hours in the winter loom in the distance, coming at us all too quickly like everything seems to . I hope you feel stronger and stronger every resting moment. Love to you )
