Haiku my Heart - Could It Be?

 wolves have pack leaders
government leads the people
birds have goddesses

meeting the bird goddess
6x11 pastel


Well, sure they do. Feathered Goddesses that flit around
through the trees, hiding behind the leaves, chirping to the
bird community in lilting birdsong, giving directions and safety advice. 
They're tiny, no bigger than an elfin, almost transparent,  and if you want to see one 
 you have to watch attentively where birds gather and catch the flash of feather
colors she wears proudly. Watch and listen closely. You'll find her one day. 
If you believe! 






6x6 acrylic & pastel on sanded paper

i bring you flowers
i picked them all by myself
to brighten your day

    I can see those feathered goddesses... I truly can. And... I love seeing the flowers this pup has brought us! Last pic I saw of him... it was a branch! Miracles do happen!

      Yes Lea, Miracles at the end of a paintbrush! I cannot find your haiku post beyond March. Hope you didnt stop. Also, this link doesnt work. Thinking there might be an extra L in it. Go see. :)

    Watching birds flit and fly is so very relaxing. When I'm stressed I watch the the birds enjoy the bird bath. Thank you for this post and have a grand weekend!

    I always suspected birds were more mysteriously cool than us. I mean, just look at them.

    Also, I LOVE the puppy haiku! It brightened my day.

    Both haiku are lovely. And of course birds have goddesses - some day I hope to see one.

    Birds seem to have more together than we do. And oh my gosh... love the pupper haiku!

    Those are interesting Haikus, I really like the second one with that image of that dog carrying those flowers.

    dear one, i just want to stretch out across your flowery earth and watch the clouds go by!!! major life change-
    my mom was discharged from the hospital. she is however- not allowed to return alone. i woke up on my birthday following this unexpected news and hurriedly packed. my life as i have known it is completely upside down as i scramble to make her home safe and answer her every need. not knowing the path ahead- i need to say goodbye to our friday haiku circle until i adjust to this new life. i'm working on a way to keep the haiku fire burning! hopefully you will find my post and all will be as best as it can be! xoxox
