Dreams for tomorrow.
Fingertips tracing my face
with child like wonder.
Love growing in the pauses
as our hearts beat together.
Thanks for the inspiration to Linda’s JusJoJan Challenge (fingertips) and to Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge (child / grow).
A figment alleged.
But that vision melts away
as true life bares all.

Sadje’s WDYS Challenge today was to think about birthdays …. This got me considering life in general. Is our life imagined anything like our real life? If not, is that good or bad? And more importantly, is it wise to consider these thoughts during a global pandemic and the ongoing threats to democracy in the US? Probably not!
Anyway, thanks to Sadje for the original inspiration and to the WOTD Challenge (figment) and to Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge for this words (life and view, which I subbed in vision.)
falling from grace, shame
left cold in the dirt, crying
rising, triumphant
Thanks to Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge for the haiku word prompts (fall / cold) and to Tales from the Mind of Kristian Word Prompt for the storm theme.
And if you haven’t then get out there and VOTE FOR CHANGE!
Dust Bowl memories
strewn like weeds in her mind’s eye
bloom as fragrant buds

Sometimes the muse strikes hard! Thanks to Sadje’s WDYS Challengefor the beautiful photo. That smile!!! She immediately struck a very specific chord in my mind and heart and to Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge for (unwittingly?) providing the perfect words (dust / weed).
hope is a rainbow
with its shades a reflection
a path marked for all
Thanks to Ronovan Writes Haiku Challenge inspirational words of shade and scorch (which I subbed in marked) and to Colleen’s Poet’s Choice Challenge.
NOW MASK UP AND VOTE!!!!
