Chance: a possibility or probability of anything happening
Like the lone leaf on a winter's bare branches
waiting for its chance to fall
and join the others in its fate
we link to
knowing we will find a chance of love
and friendship with other haiku writers.
Chance is everywhere.
Grab it when you can, and ride along with faith
knowing, like the lone leaf, you might ride
the wind of chance to your true destiny.
Haiku
she no longer sings
her freedom has now been caged
her silence is loud
****
There is a CHANCE her cage door will be opened
There is a CHANCE her heart will be free again
And there is a CHANCE she may be able to add her singing voice to the
NIGHT ORCHESTRA
in the stillness of night
under soft celestial light
nature’s quiet audience breathlessly waits
listening
a gentle breeze
anticipates
tickling forest leaves
into a tambourine rustle
as tiny green tree
frogs begin a high pitched chorus
from the back hills a long low rumble
as the moon caresses a coyote’s throat
and a daybird shrieks its displeasure at being disturbed
a chuck-will’s widow begins his nocturnal call
and the wind - the unseen night breeze
the conductor who signaled the sounds
moves quickly from
stage west into the night space
anxious to moan the tale of its travels as the night music
begins
Blessings and many chances for a
beautiful weekend.
