enact kindness
create moments of pause for disclosure, discovery, stillness

Eye of the beholder haiku


white wings settling
among red leaves branches sway
blossoms become birds

  1. a strikingly lovely painting of Japaneses Egrets on a card catches my eye and i buy it knowing it is the kind of card i delight in sending to my son; i write this haiku because i could not look at the image and not feel this uncanny shifting in perspective; i send the card and the poem to my son for many reasons, but one being that he continually encourages me to dwell in poetic expression. i am more grateful than i can say for the gifts that such dwelling bestows, and, of course, for the gift of my son.
