The Luck of a New Year

Tina Stewart Brakebill

Singularity
Expanding in space and time
As day dawns again

As day dawn again
Spinning ‘round the milky way
A new year is born

A new year is born
As space and time expanded
Singular no more

This cascading style haiku was inspired by Heeding Haiku’s Challenge to write a haiku incorporating the idea of good luck and by Sue’s Photo Prompt.

Seeing Sue’s picture made me think of our good luck that the Big Bang (AKA theory of singularity) gave us this beautiful world as well as the space and time we live in.

Here’s hoping we do a better job of stewardship in the coming year.

Winter Comes

Unbidden flurry

Nature’s scythe forsaking fall      

Fractured and formless

This is dedicated to my northern family and friends enduring their second (or is it their third?) early snowfall of the year. Florida has its faults (and boy this summer was HOT and LONG) but aaaaahh the winters are SWEET.

Thanks to the following for the inspiration for this haiku. Visit their sites for info on the prompts and for some great writing.

Sue’s snow photo prompt and Putting my Feet in the Dirt’s word prompt (fractured and formless) and Heeding Haiku for asking me to think about seasons and Autumn’s end.
