darkness settles first
in its stones

    As many of us know it's unusual to find a haiku by Sandi that is not accompanied by some amazing artwork.

    So this is a grand opportunity to just see how powerful her haiku stands alone:

    a river’s song
    darkness settles first
    in its stones

    —SANDI PRAY

    Wonderful haiku!

    warm regards,

    Alan

    The character River Song in the British science fiction series "Dr. Who" immediately came into my mind as I read the first line.

    beautiful.
    Night turns the stones dark. But the river bubbles along, singing its song, holding onto, and reflecting back the light.
