Landscape of My Mind..Haiku Wednesday


Bathed by honeyed sun 
mountain wildflowers fill the
 landscape of my mind

Woodland  trillium
won't surrender to the rain
unlike one's heart ache

Saffron felt petals
blow against the weathered shed
seeking sacred ground

Shades of indigo
brushed with rustic green terrain 
willows wave goodbye


Nothing here but hope
and mother's love enduring
not for earth's taking

    Truly lovely. - I admire those who can write prose like you, it's a joy to others like me who have no talent at all in that department.
    Very pretty photo to go with your Haiku.

    What a beautiful blog this is. I am not one to follow blogs, or anytihing for that matter, though I found myself here and it was a delight. Thank you Katy for your response about cellphone art. Don't be bothered about what might not look good when enlarged... I will work very closely with the artist while still having creative control over the book. If you are not happy, I am not either. Whatever will get into the book will be completely up to the artist.
