we float as petals
opening and opening
on a tide of love
i am home
from the ambrosa of life.
fountains full of rose blossoms, skies full of ancient clouds.
music belted out
from the unabashed heart of youth into the
warm air of desire.
warm skinned women with their easy smiles.
a heart full of life
without
the clutter of excess,
the chaos of too much.
easy.
simple.
straight forward.
where joy is the current event
and love
the politics
of living.
a generous unfurling south of the border,
opening and opening
on a tide of love.
thanks for being here to haiku my heart,
even while i have been away.
so looking forward to visiting you all!

I am going to have to learn to write Haikus, but for now I only know how to work with visual poetry. Rebecca, I love your visual poetry of the roses in the fountain. A fabulously inspiring image. Reminds me of being out on the Pacific Ocean on a boat, scattering my mother's ashes which were covered over by a layer of multi-color rose petals. All the ash and petals swirled together on the seas. Staggering.
