Retired, I'm grateful to indulge in daily blogging, taking digital photos, writing poetry just about every day, and other creative efforts, as the spirit grabs me.

Excellent haiku there!
Nice haiga - welcome to "one deep breath". I like the quotes in your sidebar too
Glad you enjoyed your visit. I collect quotes and it's hard to have to select only a few to put up. :-)
Crafty green poet, I appreciate your comment. I'm still struggling with paint box (it's so far how I get the pictures on my haiga completed), so it's good to here I'm accomplishing something. :-D
I am so jealous of you people who can put three words down and get a wonderful poem!
Oh, Sandy, it's been a long road to my writing a more pared down haiku. And I still have a tendency to try to "stuff" them, especially my dream-based haiku. :-)
Have you tried writing haiku? Whether my results are truly haiku or not, I find the process of writing and learning about the form a wonderful experience. I learn about writing, about observing and being fully present in the moment, about how to show not tell...
Ooops! That was certainly more than three words. :-) Thanks for visting. (Ah, three words...)
The unseen mystery of life.
