Haiku My Heart – Hiking
The winter woods hold the silence I crave. Though barren and bereft of green, lacking in birdsong, and harboring a dampness that can get into my bones, I have come to love the winter. It is my desert place. I can hear myself think in the winter. And sometimes I can hear the wisdom voice that whispers in us all. Wandering the silent woods, I discover a stark and singular beauty not present in the lushness of the other seasons. How blessed am I!

The Old Seeker
****
the old seeker-
only crickets for company
on her walkabout
the old seeker –
only stars lighting
her crooked path
the old seeker –
kneeling by the riverside
embraces a wildflower
the old seeker –
kissed by stars, crickets and flowers
on her walkabout

Prompt -vision quest
