ALL DAILY DREAMKU POSTED IN NOVEMBER 2006
The theme (if any) for this month seems to be light, or rather the lack thereof, mostly metaphorically. Though the last haiku does seem to indicate some hope is creeping back in.
autumn evening
we take the longest route
toward the beach
November 2, 2006
lost in the stacks
we got further
than I thought
November 3, 2006
she feels her way
along in the dark
the call of home
November 4, 2006
he touches my throat
then pulls back
silence
November 5, 2006
a terrace of
dried grape vines
your bright smile
November 6, 2006
trail of eggs
the fairy mates
on a tree branch
November 7, 2006
the path spirals
to the garden’s center
a first step
November 8, 2006
a load of lumber
tumbles off the train
moonlit yard
November 9, 2006
midnight class
we wind down the path
to the beach
November 10, 2006
she flies backward
so they can’t see up her dress
above it all
November 11, 2006
the sandals fit
the soles are thin
unbearable
November 12, 2006
sanctuary
ghosts of courting teens
crowd the church
November 13, 2006
envy
the clairvoyant race
feels no emotions
November 14, 2006
the baby marches
in the veteran’s parade
orphaned again
November 15, 2006
missed boat
she vacations at home
alone
November 16, 2006
open wounds
it doesn’t matter which
child is mine
November 17, 2006
I guide him
on his back, feet first
no strings
November 18, 2006
yelling at one friend
jealous of another –
hot sheets
November 19, 2006
escape by boat
across the lake
trees in silhouette
November 20, 2006
river overlook
the sad boy asks
about the Ban Sidhe
November 21, 2006
cracked sidewalk
home stands to the left
of the large complex
November 22, 2006
midnight ride
taped to the steering wheel
a strange address
November 23, 2006
deception
they gang up on me
with sweet desserts
November 24, 2006
feet up and dusty:
wood furniture tossed during
the revolution
November 25, 2006
to believe her
he’ll have to lie to himself
fork in the road
November 26, 2006
winter solstice
to conserve we vacate
half of the town
November 27, 2006
my hand aches
from holding on:
it opens
November 28, 2006
new store
too big a step up
to take
November 29, 2006
he mashes me
as I get in the cab
trapped again
November 30, 2006
mesa noontide
two Indians lean slowly
in to a kiss
[This dream is especially striking to me due to all the light in it. I've been having some S.A.D. (Seasonal Affect Disorder) this fall and just in the last couple of days started using full spectrum light bulbs. :-D]
These dream haiku were rarely written or dreamed on the dates on which they were posted; many are even years old. I simply go through my handwritten dream haiku notebooks for one that grabs my attention and that’s the one that gets posted on that day. Of course, whatever is going on in my life clearly influences my choice of dream haiku for any particular day’s post. So in that respect these daily dream haiku do act like an on-going dream diary.

‘til next time, keep dreaming,
