let loose each dark care
every moment a new birth
open with the sun
dear world
remind us to walk outside ourselves
under the blue bowl of morning
with fresh eyes and a heart
for love.
on fridays lovers of small words gather
to strip down to the bare essence
of expression.
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.
no prompts, no rules, just a passion for writing;
the joy of sharing.
join us!

Flowers always seem to have the power to call me to holiness - giving me courage to banish the darkness and bloom! Thank you, Rebecca!

I have come back from Wales - where I was born - filled with both visual and emotional inspiration. Now to put that inspiration into practice - to live more passionately indeed. Being part of a community such as this is so encouraging! xxx

The only rule is Love!
That morning glory is
the perfect color of holiness.
You are just perfect Rebecca,
letting loose the dark♥♥♥

Oh!
And I almost forgot, Rebecca,
I have your book ready to post,
but I don't have a mailing
address for you.
I was having issues with my email,
so perhaps
you didn't receive my request.
♥♥

In this moment, this very moment, I am welcoming a new birth!

I love that line... the blue bowl of morning... morning glories have always been one of my favorite flowers... one is blooming right now outside my window, kind of like the sky that we all share, beauty waiting to fill our cups, our Friday morning bowls with love... XOXOXO

Yes, to live like a flower. Engaging the sun every day anew. This is a fantastic way to imagine a life, and can be put into practice as a habit. Thank you for the beautiful photo and thought through your haiku.
Peace

This photo is stunning, the way the center glows and shines outward is amazing and fits perfectly with your haiku, i have scrolled back twice already to see that photo again!

first of all, I've given thought to the name of this flower! I can remember saying that to my daughter at the beginning of the day, how joyous she was! my 2nd thought, how the Morning Glory is open, ready for the day. I am trying to do the same, with the help of you and the many contributors here.
