Years of life gone
With one careless act
Lone log remains
Haiku
Haiku Horizons Weekly Challenge Week#194 Prompt: Log
This prompt caused me to remember the terrible fires in Oregon this year. So much destruction was caused by one careless act.
Tag: life
Thought for Today…
Are you spreading light?
There are two ways to spread.
Be a candle or reflect.
Two choices you can do daily.
Did you choose one today?

Cycle of Life
Though the world looks dreary
Though the leaves are fallen
Life still goes on
Haiku
Richly Blessed
Stop, look around you.
Blessings come in many sizes,
How many do you see?
And how many are unseen?
Big and small blessings,
That live within your heart?
Treasure them all.
For if you have even one,
You are rich my friend!

A Scattering of Joy
Like golden stars
Leaves scattered in my yard
Brighten a Fall day
Haiku
Your Vestige
Time and life will take their toll.
They will leave a lasting imprint.
What is to be your end goal?
Time and life will take their toll.
The body dies but not the soul.
Consider this as you do your stint.
Time and life will take their toll,
They will leave a lasting imprint.

Purpose
Purpose
Of a Lampost.
To stand, uphold the Light.
At all times, in all seasons,
It stands,
Strong, sure, supporting the Light .
It’s purpose isn’t to shine,
But to stand firm,
Always.

Ephemeral Joy
In the days of my youth
When time was of no essence
No thoughts for the morrow
Entered my lofty world
As I grew vibrantly
In the fresh breezes of life
Enjoying the sun’s kiss
Until touched by Autumn’s breath
I felt the brevity of life
Choka
De Icer
Homeless eyes see
Ice on the windshield of life
Be the sun that melts
Haiku
Another Change
Tonight
Another change
Time falls back an hour
Tomorrow will seem different
Again
