Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

wishful thinking

July 31, 2019January 28, 2020 Tina Stewart Brakebill

unhampered by doubt

my spirit defies limits

soaring to new heights

This bit of wishful thinking was inspired by Colleen’s Synonyms Only Challenge. I used “spirit” for nature and “unhampered” for clear. Check out the details and other contributions here.

Capture the Moment

July 29, 2019January 28, 2020 Tina Stewart Brakebill

Capture the moment:
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.

Free?

June 29, 2019January 29, 2020 Tina Stewart Brakebill

Free from care. Carefree.

A cosmic joke or the truth?

Only time will tell.

Thanks to  Sammi for an interesting prompt.

Not sure my deep thoughts translated into a great 14 word haiku but I enjoyed the challenge.

Dim Hope

June 27, 2019January 29, 2020 Tina Stewart Brakebill

the light beckons me

into the dim passageway

and offers me hope

thresholds

Still Flowing

May 30, 2019January 29, 2020 Tina Stewart Brakebill

when our days are spent

the rivers still flow to sea

and the earth endures

yearning

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.
