bring brown creepers to focus
This is the fifth set of haiku from my daily practice started January 1st, 2021. The previous set is is here. I publish a new set every 19 days. Enjoy!
a forest burned shows
the skeletal curvature
flesh removed from earth
I am condensate
dew that has settled on life
destined for the soil
those moments of pause
bring brown creepers to focus
camouflage now seen
I see reflection
homeomorphic tree tops
painted in puddles
to be a raven
to play in the winds of life
closer to the light
vestiges of trees
swept away — a tide of men
only roots remain
non-linear time
you are like honey and light
a trickle, a gush
the ease to forget
that we are but on a speck
in a universe
trees churn with current
rooted, wooden, in whirlpools
centuries of flow
walking random paths
looking for meaning, we see
pareidolia
I have a fixed point
but my distance grows in time
evolving conchoid
I try to let storms
blow through me and around me
but, sometimes I break
abundance flowing
my vessel is full of life
when I am present
trees dip their big toes
into the streams of the sky
manifest eddies
lichen brings color
composite life of crutose
a vibrant puddle
a spiral beauty
rotational symmetry
perfection in life
I have had to change
change my radius of thought
to find happiness
a new path is found
it was always here — ready
now realized and walked
night time thoughts bring focus
moonlit branches projected
vivid silouettes
