Very good switch of atmosphere for line three.
First the sad departure and gentle farewell and than the brutal
"The king is dead, long live the king" sort of thing.
Clever. As is your photograph, with the same half and half idea.

A beautiful photograph. I love the personificaton of the light, waves, and house itself, as if they were always there, a part of the eternal and only needed an observer for completion. Lovely haiku.

I love the photo. Is it one of your own?
I like your alliteration too, and your very clever consonant usage.

Have a nice day, Boonie

Gathering Myself

Today I'm taking a little me time, doing what I love to do, just digital doodling. My mind has been on dolls, motherhood, Mary and the coming season.

But I lost my poor little doll, dears, As I played in the heath one day; And I cried for her more than a week, dears; But I never could find where she lay. I found my poor

Navigating Home

Well here I am again!  Wonder of wonders that I am even showing up at all in this little blog wilderness having uprooted my faithful old friend Finding my Bliss by way of messing up the template!  The one who safely sailed me through Bloglandia for all of those years was interfered with in an abrupt manner (see previous post).   I know it may sound silly but I feel like I am grieving for what was my sanctuary and residence, I am feeling kind of lost with nothing familiar to cling to, but alas I do have one place that is very much like home and so there I will share a little haiku with my friends... By way of haiku navigate a place called home the 'heart' gathering... On the subject of home and the insecurity of having no solid ground to tread on, that's where I am finding myself at present as I'm in the throws of purchasing a new home and going through a very sticky patch with the legalities of it all.  It's going at a snail's pace and I'
