Feet on my doorstep
The place they love to be
After a long day

Tag: August 2016
Doorway to Peace
Relaxing
Beside the river.
Over rocks,
Thru forest,
Gently flows the Nestucca,
Below forest pines.

First Pedicure
Today feet
Got royal treatment
Were massaged
And pampered
They’ve been thru a lot, but
Rewarded today
Shadorma
Thankful to be back walking around on these feet again. It has been 2-1/2 months since my hip surgery and I am doing well. Today was a special treat for my feet and toes. They deserved it! They have done a lot for me over the years! 😊
Perfect Sign
A fruitful tree’s gift
In perfected condition
Maturity’s sign

Haiku Horizons Weekly Challenge Week#129. Prompt: Sign
Sitting in Silence
Old trunk
If you could talk,
I can only imagine
What kind of stories would you tell
Of life,
And your travels on land or sea.
Who did you belong to?
What did you hold?
I wonder…

Love Found
A pleasant surprise
Placed on a random bench
Tiny “Love Rock”
Senryu
Today I was blessed to find a “Love Rock” at just the right time to brighten up my day.
If you have never heard of “Love Rocks” I invite you to check out their website at www.loverocks.org where you can read the heart touching story of how and why “Love Rocks” started and perhaps you might want to participate in sharing the love as well.
Afternoon Encounter
Visitor
Dressed in yellow,
Fluttering
And flitting
Stops to rest and pose awhile
Upon the pink rose

Outside my door
A charming floral bouquet
Pink and yellow roses

Summer Serenity
Summer evening
A key to relaxation
Comfy garden swing

Glad August Memory
The Gladiolus
Grew near my bedroom window
Colorful sword flower
Haiku
The small house I grew up in as a child was bordered on one side with gladiolus and hollyhock planted by my mother.
My Mother was born on August 25th. She loved Gladiolus and
Gladiolus is the birth flower for August.
It’s lovely to remember looking out my bedroom window and viewing many colors of tall gladiolus and hollyhocks.
Such a nice memory to recall as I begin the month of August 🙂
