Moments : Tranquilize


Moments : Tranquilize
Haiku Friday


Sian planted a seed a few posts ago, which in turn, prompted this haiku.
Although it really started when Lydia posted a quote from Mother Teresa.

I constructed my Wordless Wednesday post around that lovely thought.
Inadvertently, I had created my interpretation of Mother Teresa's sage declaration.

I really enjoyed the chain reaction of inspiration that spawned from one simple concept.......

  4. I so love this post that it will be one of my favorite blog posts always. Gorgeous picture, perfectly described in your haiku (words so lovely!). Even your asking others to say their "peace" - wow, what a blending of beauty and serenity and openness.
    (I am going to think on the haiku, a little project for the next days...)

  7. I am not sure what a hiaki is but what you did looks great. I love silence. If I am in a room that is too noisy, I get all jumpy and want to get away.

  10. Here's something that brings me peace:

    Dip swing dip swing dip
    Skimming clear water's surface
    In a blue canoe

  11. Beautiful, just beautiful. But it isn't really silence. There is never silence and that is what is absolutely amazing.

  13. Silence is wonderful! Especially when you have small children. Sometimes I have to tell my little boy that mommy would like a "quiet minute" because he is such a talker sometimes!
