Haiku Friday
Your thoughts are like seeds
be mindful of what you plant
who knows what will sprout
be mindful of what you plant
who knows what will sprout
Initially, this photo was dressed up with text like most of the other haiku's.
I decided against using it because I just like the original image.
It's so simple on its own, and I didn't want to complicate it by adding 'stuff'.
I followed the prompt from One Single Impression.....Seeds.
I know I went the literal route, but it is what it is.
Thank you all so very much for the kind comments on my last post.
I was surprised to find that so many others could relate, although I knew I wasn't alone.
I'm so grateful that tomorrow is Friday.
And I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
LOVE your photos.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could take a class from you or something.
I probably need a nicer camera first! I'm saving up, but it will be a while...
a beautiful image and beautiful haiku. :)
ReplyDeleteAlways love your pictures and your haiku. The simplicity of this photo really does make it what it is, quite beautiful.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this photo... so simple, yet so beautiful and a wonderful haiku to go with it.
ReplyDeleteSo true and if you don't plant them they have no chance of growing. I like the photo the way it is.

ReplyDelete.."thoughts -seeds-
ReplyDeletemindful-sprout"
_ur poem has the feel of an aphorism_
my total ignorance 'bout the technicalities of photography does not preclude me from enjoying the dimensional effect of what u call a
"simple" picture..many thanks for sharing..
Lovely image … excellent Haiku'd reminder! Stopping by here earlier might have helped me move past this morning's 'stuckness' at Small Reflections after creating the HaikuFriday/SkyWatch at Sacred Ruminations. I'm glad to find it belatedly anyway. Thank you ;--)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Love the photo!
ReplyDeleteI always collect seeds from my plants throughout my garden... at first I used to label them and plant them the next year exactly where I wanted them. NOW... I collect them all in the same paper sack and then distribute them the next year wherever... I like it... like me my plants are free-spirted... and when they pop up it is a SURPRISE! Who doesn't love surprises!
ENJOY your weekend!

ReplyDeleteCouldn't say it any better than what Patsy's comment says, "Such deep thought that rings so true. You are very talented with camera and with words". Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see fall photos from you. I'll probably cry upon viewing, they will be so awesome...
ReplyDeleteI constantly struggle with planting positive thoughts instead of negative ones. Thanks for the reminder. The photo is simply wonderful. No text needed!

ReplyDeleteYour work is absolutely fantastic. Plus helpful hints when workng with photoshop is also an inspiration. I am going to the Smokey Mountains in a week and know that the shutterbug I carry will have a thrilling time - thanks for the thoughts and points-of-view you share.
