haiku – nature & space ~ 5/9/22

she yearned to be free

wild horses 🐎 couldn’t stop her

nature of the beast

Take two 5/7/5

haiku – nature & space ~ 5/9/22

room to breathe

spaces in between

worlds close in

A quick 3/5/3 with worlds standing in for nature. Happy Monday folks.

Haiku – Desert and Path ~ 4/25/22

Desert surroundings

Arid and oppressive heat

The path to lightness

haiku – fly & zip ~ 4/18/22

with a little oomph

he stepped up his style of dress

what a dapper Dan

Okie dokie folks. I have lost it. In the best way possible. When I saw the words, my very first thought was don’t forget to zip your fly. I sort of went the fashion route. Oomph is subbed for zip and dapper is subbed for fly … Pretty Fly by Offspring …. earworm below. lol

As always, more to come.

Jilly’s A-to-Z for 4/14/22 – Left / Lose / Love

Left / Lose / Love

Times feel uncertain

When there’s nothing left to lose

Love shows us the way

Now let’s hear some of The Alan Parsons Project

As always, more to come.

Jilly’s A-to-Z for 4/13/22 – Kind / Kinetic

Kind and Kinetic

I’m sure you have heard

In a world where you can be

Anything, Be kind

Kinetic feelings

Ripples spread from the center

To lift others up

I’m not really a country music fan. A 70s rocker chick into a 90s metal head. Doh! But … this old school country music is something I can get behind. Glen Campbell’s music reminds me of my daddy. How Sweet It Is!! They say you can’t pick your family … do it anyway!

As always, more to come.

Jilly’s A-to-Z for 4/12/22 – Jump / Jive

Jump and Jive

Dancing out the blues

As if life depends on it

With Jump, Jive An’ Wail

Even if you can’t dance, do it anyway. Same goes for singing or anything else that might move you to reframe the situation. Even if nothing is cured, for the briefest moment, you’re taken away.

As always, more to come.

haiku – bare & fruit ~ 4/11/22

laid out before you

reward of introspection

stark reality

I’m digging the lower case haiku.

I used synonyms today because my mind took me elsewhere. Anywhere but here … Since the synonyms might be cryptic, I’ll explain that I used reward for fruit and stark for bare. Facing the truth is hard folks. Reality bites and all that jazz. Yet the truth can be a reward. Shows me where to shift my priorities.

As always, more to come.
