Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,
Maybe you can remember that back in our history we had Kala Ramesh as featured haiku poetess for our CD-Specials and today I have a nice quote by her to inspire you. This will be a short episode, but I think it can inspire you.
Here is the quote by Kala Ramesh:
[...] "Last
evening I was looking out from my balcony and saw a sparrow perch on
a branch. All of a sudden, with a quick jerk, she ruffles her
feathers and spreads out her wings – her bodyline on an upward
curve, about to take off." [...] Kala Ramesh

a sparrow's night song drifting

I'm sharing a haibun I wrote earlier this summer...about sparrows, of course.

ReplyDeleteclouds make way
end of a long quest
heaven opens up
clouds make way
sparrow takes flight
first fallen leaf
end of a long quest
scent of Givenchy
still lingers
heaven opens up
scent of Givenchy
an angel awaits
