Morning Sitting: Double haiku
MORNING SITTING
Three times three is nine
Three nines are twenty-seven
Pigeon on repeat
In the far distance
An American war bird
Slashes the still air
2020 Full Stop: Shadorma
2020 FULL STOP
Look around
No carrots, no sticks
All the chocks
Pulled away
Down time can become dream time
Up to us right now
The Way Forward
THE WAY FORWARD
Staying in place may be progress
Maybe the only progress for now
Let’s ask, once we’ve learnt how
Also how to listen to the answer
Darkness: Shadorma
DARKNESS
Whenever
Eclipse is total
I retreat
To the sky
Close all the doors and windows
And watch the clouds
Wilder Than Us
WILDER THAN US
“All Is One” we’re told
Check it out – Little required
Silence and stillness
Lead to pastures beyond our
Wildest imaginations
The Stillness: Senryu
THE STILLNESS
Careering through life
You miss the gifts to be found
In unemployment
Doing Nothing II: Quatrain
DOING NOTHING II
Not too practical this proposition agreed
Yet still practicality is not of the essence
While stillness may still serve to produce
Here and there an unexpectedness or two
The True Destination
THE TRUE DESTINATION
Nowhere to go
No need to go anywhere
Sit where you are
Simply follow your heart
