conversing with stars
pines lift the edge of heaven
prayers slip through like clouds
***
fridays at recuerda mi corazon
we gather
gleeful to strip down to the bare essence
of expression and most importantly, share.
we visit each other with a vengeance,
leave comments with a passion,
and lie in wait for the next friday when we
bare our souls all over again.

haiku my heart
take the time to visit each other
and leave a note of kindness along the way.
Your hauntingly soulful haiku reminds me of summer nights, camping in the forest, and watching the smoke from the campfire spiral up to heaven. So peaceful...

Hello my dear rebecca,
One of my favorite images of yours. The moon shining on the lake, the trees parting like a pair of altar boys so that the congregation may have a look at the Cathedral of beauty that God has created. I should love to be conversing with stars right now. Last night I saw three meteors showering from the heavens before I was off to bed. I thought, now I can dream. Hope you like the post. :)
xoxo,
Noelle

Your haiku is beautiful dear! Love the deep blue sky and the pines lifting the edge... you became a light on Friday in the past year and I'm so happy I found you and joined this circle of haiku-loving friends! Enjoy your weekend!

My goodness, you folks got a really early start this week. I'm always up so early and I wait for the post to go up. Not this week, I'm just one of those people in the long line of participants.
That's okay. I love Fridays. I love coming here to do Haiku and share with the others.
Your photo is fantastic. I see the moon through the pines here at Spadoville like you do. I'm sure we've looked at it at the same time at least once. Now that's sharing!
Beautiful words to go along with seeing the natural wonder of Grandmother Moon reflecting.
A fine place to be this morning, even if I am late for the party.
Peace to all

It is so good a day late to know that you are there, Rebecca, as I know how busy you are. And now I'll take time to visit the others.

Truly magnificent! I feel the calm, the stately power, nature's trees like sentinels on the edge of any horizon, guarding the gates where thoughts and prayers glide by, so many bits of lace.. you say it all.. love your haiku!

It's so weird. I posted this a.m. on Chrome and it didn't "take it." I reposted on Safari and it did. Anyhow, late to the party, but I got here twice.

I hope you are sleeping in...
I have postcards for you.
