A Stroll around my Neighbourhood

Did you know?

I have a famous neighbour?

Though she's not actually alive now,

least, not on this plane!

We often go round by my neighbour's house,

it's just over the hedge from my back garden.

One of the things my neighbour's house

is famous for is it's windows.

When the house was built late 16th century,

windows and glass were a luxury,

in fact you might say

they were as valuable as gold!

Golden Windows!

Today we had a leisurely stroll

through our neighbour's garden

it was beautiful,

as the golden evening sun

hit the ice water on one of the

seven ponds.

Next Sunday I'll show the entrance to our neighbour's house.

I love the sunlight reflecting on the windows of the neighbour's home, they're like jewels.

Haiku my Heart #42 - Shine on

t'was just a sparkle peeping through the blacks and grey it filled my whole eye .... My daughter's car stands motionless on our drive, she is in hospital with severe stress symptoms. It has been a dark week, yesterday I noticed a sparkle reflecting off of her car through my window. She's been rattling up and down the motorway for the last year everyday to the job she loves and is fighting hard to keep. The car had so many rattles, now fixed by my love, it's washed, polished and resting-up waiting for her return. For more haiku poetry Visit Recuerda mi Corazon

One for the Road

Off on my travels, not before I say 'here here' to Rebecca's words, ...over at Haiku my Heart Recuerda mi Corazon

Haiku my Heart #49 ~ Numbers

After yoga yesterday we discussed significant numbers, today being Friday 13th, unlucky for some they say! On the other hand the year 2012 is said to be an auspicious year, The Chinese Year of the Golden Dragon, taking place only once every 60 years . It also happens to be a leap year so that means the possibility of climbing my same old staircase an extra time this year! The number 300 is significant too this being my 300th post! whilst yesterday the 12th was my blog birthday 2 years! So what do these numbers all amount to? Can I count on them to calculate my life? Or are they just markers of time, as illusory as my shadows? shadows behind me light always falls to the front illuminates now sending to Postcards from Paradise Recuerda mi Corazon BTW this is my 49th Haiku I'm sure this is a significant number! ;~) PS I'm really getting into this numbers thing, apparently 7 is the perfe...
