with mind unshackled
meditating on mountains
swaying in the breeze

In forest sanctum
Above the hush a twig snaps
A Wood Thrush takes flight

crisp scent of pine wafts
through cabin windows ajar
spring meditation

total clarity
beyond yet cradled by words
mind like fire unbound

Frozen sun
riding on horseback
a winter shadow

enveloped by night
melancholic winter eves

winter's first snowflakes
while my heart is still in June
withering dreamscapes

Day 184:

The frailty of a grain of sand, of a drop of seawater,
Yet in their numbers on numbers, we ponder:

One sketches footstep, the other peels it.
The frailty of us, of oxygen's molecule, a bit

& in their numbers, it's a breath in;
While feet insist forth therein.

gently falling snow
accumulates on rooftops
where did autumn go

#haiku #zen #senryu

[windoors @windoors4]

gust tears through this mind
memories come flooding back
lone pine, tall and thin

#haiku #zen #senryu

[windoors @windoors4]

frostbitten fingers
nibbled by a kind, old friend
late autumn snowfall

#haiku #zen #senryu

[windoors @windoors4]

grass browning with age
autumn turns its head to me
gray hair and gray skies
