The calm between the beats
bestows beauty too

Working on appreciating the “now.” Thanks for the inspiration.
Written for the Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge. Our words were quiet (for which I substituted “calm”) and beauty.

Awaiting their time
To spread their wings and take flight
The dashing pair sleep

This buggy haiku was inspired by seeing these rascals (pictured above) firmly stuck to the side of a building last night while walking home from dinner. Social media posting help me identify them as dasychira meridionalis. Honestly I’m still creeped out by them but I wish them well as they transition to this.

And thanks to Ronovan Writes for the perfect prompts (hope/dash) for my new buggy friends! I substituted awaiting for hoping because I liked the way it sounded.
when our days are spent
the rivers still flow to sea
and the earth endures

Not sure if my words are hopeful or fatalistic but the photo is beautiful! Thanks Sue. Click here for more great writing and the rules of the game.
connecting nature
the trees will remain after
sharing their message

Thanks for the inspiration to Sue and her Write Photo Challenge.
amid tones of green
she blends golden daffodils
spring’s perfect timbre

Summer hit Florida full on this week so I was a bit nostalgic for a midwestern spring until I saw that it snowed up there this week! So here’s hoping for a real spring for my northern fam and friends and a bit more springish temps for me. 😉
Thanks to Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge. Our words this week are pitch and tone. I substituted timbre for pitch.
