Beautiful..This touched me somewhere deep inside..
Prayer knows no geographical bounds. Wherever we are we can pray, knowing that good will flow from our intentions.
Dearest Sue,
Thank you for this beautiful and remarkably wistful post, filled with love and compassion for the Japanese people. Thank you for mentioning ShelterBox as well. I am moved beyond words by your heart-opening message. I pray for their lives and their future, especially the future of children.
Much Love,
Noelle

The whole world is praying, we all unite in the care for each other. Japan helped NZ after the earthquake in Christchurch last month and now a NZ team of experts is helping Japan. We all reach out to each other.
Wonderful art and words.

I think we will all be absorbed with the tragedy of Japan for a long time to come. I pray the third hit of this triple tragedy - the nuclear power plants - will refocus the world on the need for better energy sources.

Very touching and the world extends a helping hand; we know somewhere deep within, that the land of the Rising Sun will rise up like a phoenix to shine once again!!

I love that a haiku can be so simple and yet so poignant -exactly as you have captured here. Beautifully juxtaposed with stunning and impressive images -are they your own beautiful creations? Thank you x

the beauty of love and compassion shines bright in your beautiful ku.... love the dimensional space within each art work, as if our prayers have reached across the short space and embraced their tragedy holding up those who cannot stand... thank you...
Dear Sue~ These paintings are so beautiful and meaningful! I love the image you evoked of our hearts reaching around the globe to Japan to touch the rising sun. Perfect, spare, moving Haiku.

A haiku seems most appropriate at this time as a vessel for our thoughts.
Beautifully illustrated by you.
A post both stirring and soothing at the same time.

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

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...
