lovely, and happiest anniversary to you both!
May Fields of Poppies and the indulgence of delirium in knowing many years of satisfying Love complete each of you on this your glorious summer anniversary of marriage to a wonderful partner.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let the vow of this day keep itself wildly and wholly
Spoken and silent, surprise you inside your ears
Sleeping and waking, unfold itself inside your eyes
Let its fierceness and tenderness hold you
Let its vastness be undisguised in all your days
~Excerpt from "Blessing for a Wedding" by Jane Hirschfield

Noelle
I just love what Noelle said about your haiku. Like Ramesh, I'm not exactly sure of the emotions you were feeling when walking by a poppy field, but given it is your anniversary (happy, happy), the word opium (Noelle's delirium) somehow seems key.

A Continuum ~> continual sequence of ~> elemental change ~> By far this is the most difficult post written by myself, ever. I have not visited this place for sometime... I have been 'lying low' as an old friend used to put it, not low through depression or anything like that but since my love passed away parts of my known world have passed too.

But as the days have come and gone I am beginning to look at things in a different light and although I am grieving for my love I find I am l feeling his prese

Warrior Woman Detour

Yearning clear blue skies to brighten the road for ease, to step light of heart... Detour intersect is warrior woman's path she must tread alone, her only companion Om lifts a weighted heart... feeling vibrational warmth, she lights momentum... My heart is weighed down at the moment, we are waiting for scan results, my love has been in constant debilitating pain since before Christmas, I'm having a nasty IBS flare-up, I'm doing warrior woman work! I am grateful for this Friday morning ritual ~ Haiku my Heart, it is a wonderful distraction from the everyday, focusing on and fitting feelings into 575 syllables... Thanks to our Rebecca for hosting ~> Haiku my Heart Recuerda mi Corazon
