clouds gone the clarity of shadows
—Jan Dobb
Issue 15.2 | 3 November 2015
summer skies pillows on blue along the long trail
Clouds gone, The charity of Shadows
clouds leave us to face our own shadows
shadows speak louder than clouds
Nice.
clouds of falling leaves break the fall of rain as shadows fail
Nice again.
Love the subtle irony of this haiku.
(Also coming to Canberra soon for a month. Would enjoy hearing your bush trail recommendations. See my website for contact info.)
Terrific!
