These haiku were prompted by a TV Show that I watched recently.
The series is Craft in America on Public Broadcasting. The piece featured quilt artists whose art largely tells a story rich with history and social commentary.
Color harmony
Surface ripples with texture
Embracing comfort.
Jarring images
Reminders of our foibles
Cloaked in coziness
One of my favorites retrieved from the basement and dusted off…
This haiku was recently featured at Nurture My Muse Blog
Contemplating the fourth of anytime
in that empty room
somewhere between here and there
ready and waiting
as I am for you
hungering for your touch
longing to feel your body
pressing, molding to mine
Keenly sensing your warmth
Your strength – innate power
Long known inner signposts
guide our lips , our fingers
skimming, probing,
caressing, demanding,
plunging, drowning
finding, losing.
Focusing, forgetting
Our world distilled as trembling sensation
Building, seeking the limits
Bursting through imaginary fences
Carrying us to new realms
Clinging, crying out
Destiny realized
In this lifetime.
The Spirit of the Goddess
