Haiku My Heart: Thrill

29 Friday May 2015

blooms, Dew, Jane Halifax, Nature, oneness, scintilation, thrill

Done for Carpe Diem Haiku Shuukan. And also for Recuerda Mi Corazon. 

The emphasis is on C in G R A C E (enlarge your capacity of compassion) as defined by Joan Halifax, a Zen Buddhist, with greater emphasis on “Considering, what will serve.” Consider what will really serve the other person by being truly present for this one and letting insights arise. You feel the moment, you really feel the other and you come in close contact with his/her energy. … there you both are … in contact with each other and with an open heart and mind … on the same level …

Thrill

almost as one

scent of opening bud

fills my emptiness

2

morning thrill

dew drops scintillate

the petals
