a river’s song
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

The character River Song in the British science fiction series "Dr. Who" immediately came into my mind as I read the first line.
Same here! :)
Lovely, thought provoking.
Thank you for this beautiful haiku.
Beautiful image, Sandi. Thank you!
I love the image of darkness settling first in the river's stones, Sandi. Beautiful.

A very beautiful haiku, Sandi.
Great!!
beautiful.
Night turns the stones dark. But the river bubbles along, singing its song, holding onto, and reflecting back the light.
I am just finding these wonderful comments! I am so honored by your words <3
