hazy curtains part
light, wonder, ideas come–
vanish, now again

Wonderful haiku, Merril. Thanks for sharing. I hope you’re doing okay.
Ideas come, then vanish. I understand the feeling.
You are grieving now. Be kind to yourself. Even skip a day posting, unless you feel up to it.
Indeed, the haiku feels translucent. Thank you, Merril.
Thanks, Marian. I’m not really doing prompts right now. Freya selected this haiku of mine for her translucent series. I wrote it quite awhile ago, but she just published it the other day.

They come and they go and we cherish them when they stay for a while.
Yes, indeed.
Such a wonderful image. (K)
Beautiful description of the nebulous nature of inspiration
Thank you, Derrick.
True for many of us.
Well done, Merril.
Thank you, Ken.
