haiku my heart extraordinary

 

sometimes it hits you

life is one fleeting moment

catch it as it flies

***

 

summer will give way to fall

days will shorten, nights lengthen

the moon will sliver, only to fill once more with light

as the world keeps spinning;

as we wake to place our feet on the floor of living.

and i ask you

is there any moment that is not holy?

that does not merit living fully,

that is not worthy of our peace and light?

 

 

haiku my heart

a gathering of extraordinary honoring

in the holy of small words.

Not one moment is unholy...not even the ones we think are hellish. Holy, holy, holy!

Yes. It has been shown to me over and over, near brushes with the end, that indeed, every moment is Sacred and a Blessing.
Your photo is divine. Your words exquisite.

Peace

Your small words grip my heart in the most 'holy' way, filled with vivid colour and light!

I love everything about your haiku today...it's beautiful and wise and oh, so true. Everything seems to go so fast - summer being a great example - and we need to be mindful of the blessing and grace of each moment. This is really exquisite in all ways today, Rebecca!

[deb taylor]

how interesting once again that we are both writing about the same topic...light!
Unknowing what each other types...we still experience the same feelings of love and light...and YES! every moment is holy.
I love you Rebecca.

This really speaks to my heart!

Yesterday I struggled to rise above shock; an awareness of deep contempt from another. Not easy. The light came pouring back in after a while. Your brilliant contrail reveals just how sharp the pain was and then the overcoming just as bright.

[Lea]

Yes. Each moment holy. Each moment a streak across the sky that causes me to pause and breath in the beauty of now, this miracle of being here. XO

I have shared a set of haiku on hummingbirds. It's such an extraordinary bird. Enjoy the read.
