staring at wonder
dreaming in drifts falling down
on reality
Posting haiku several times a week! Always focused on the little moments of pleasure, of freedom, of reflection, of happiness, of taking time we oft ignore:

a glass of red wine
days fraught with complications
spilling my best ink
occasionally
we forget just where we were
we snap memories
here i am again
with you my bitter lovely
your bite awakens
my eyes pop open
at the ring of my alarm
a weary Thursday
partial clarity
distortion in points of view
wrong commentary
