haiku my heart letting go

 

photograph by bob king

 

here the darkening trees

bereft of shimmering leaves

don a million stars

 

***

 

days shortening.

night, a long winded bedfellow with icy feet.

winter begs for reflection, slowing down.

time beside the warming fire. 

life is a song of letting go.

when finally complete, 

we too are poised 

for stars.

***

while haiku brings us together,

it is the time taken to visit and leave a kind word

that truly gives us a sense of belonging.

to fully experience the power of connecting i encourage you to

visit each participant and leave a word of

acknowledgement along the way.

please link back to

haiku my heart 

so more may join us.

thank you for your warmth and beauty.

xoxo

Magnificent shot and words. Stars sound so jubilant to me.

Which is better: trees with leaves or trees with stars? Oh, it's so hard to choose! I guess the best thing to do is take things as they come, with thanksgiving.

I'm glad to be here with all of you today, and look forward to reading your haiku offering.

Thank you for this oh so lovely reminder that it's time to slow down and let go. I'd like to find myself as a twinkling star in the heavens one day!
