CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI: The River Sings

Inspirational Haiku by Basho

a river breeze

the one wearing a light persimmon robe

enjoying the coolness

My Haiku

gurgling river sings

trees cast soft shadows o’er it

gentle breeze comforts

more haikus

Hoosier Quote:

“I am a native Hoosier,

and the lakes and streams and hills of Indiana

early brought to the boy I used to be courage to carry on through all the years.”

Beautiful image, Nonnie :)

Nice Nonnie .. makes me remember other rivers not too far from you, the Kaskaskia when I was a girl. Bastet

We all need those comforting breezes. Fortunately, they usually (although not always) come at just the right time.

Rivers and seas and lakes and ponds: so much water and so much life.
