Haiku Window View

I’ve been sedentary this month, more than I like to be and maybe it’s the dreary rain or the unending frustrations at my work, but this month’s batch of haiku seem distant, as if written from afar.

Anybody else feel like they’re viewing everything that happens to them from a window?

Well, either way, let me know if you have a favorite of my views.

Happy Tuesday!

Survivors blend in.

Difficult to choose, but I am with Paula: the “coral” poem. I enjoyed reading them and images are gorgeous!

  Thank you, Michele. I try to find time to write a haiku at the end of day. It’s one of my healthier habits.

  Hi David. I’m not a painter. It’s signed by Fagan and I forgot to add her site. It hangs in my home.

love these K: joyful and playful; the ‘bendy trees’ one is my favourite; the images are delightful too 🙂

  Thank you very much, John. The bendy trees was on an after school walk with daughter. I commend the trees were sucking the sunlight right out of the sky, and she said they were bendy straws.
