Under the cedars
gathering of the crows
before sun bows.

before the sun bows
birds’ jamboree
then take flight.

Thanks, I am trying to catch up but need to reflect more…will order some books Jen recommended…it’s time. I really enjoy haiku and want to learn more, what better way than read the masters.

I can’t help but wonder what that gathering was/is all about.

Actually those crows were fighting over food..I took most of the photos inside the house and when I got to the porch, they took off.

Reading the masters is the best way to learn haiku … haiku isn’t only a poetry form, it’s (in my opinion) a way of living … and a spiritual path … These haiku you have shared here are wonderful and your photos … wow!
I am glad that you like haiku and I think you are starting to become an addict 🙂

I think I’m addicted too. I became addicted to wetting and poetry since last year as it was a catarthis for my work especially…I discovered a way to feel liberated and avoid vicarious trauma. But haiku is meditative and deep refraction… Like praying and truly aware of the words chanted.

Writing poetry is a spiritual art and i belief that writing haiku brings you in a deeper contact with nature and yourself. I even think that writing poetry can be very healing …
