dark gives way to light
a nova bursts then dies
life’s circle unveiled
as the stars of the night sky
reveal themselves de novo

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.
