Friday haiku – Dutch cloudscape

May 10, 2019 By Marit 5 Comments

Wide skies and small words… that’s what this Friday is all about.
This photo, this landscape, overwhelms me and leaves no room for chitchat.

Friday haiku

Photo made by my friend Lena Schreijenberg

Waterverhalen.
Onder een Hollandse lucht
stilstaan.  Luisteren.
Waves tell a story
under a Dutch cloudscape. Stand
motionless. Listen.

I submit this haiku to Recuerda Mi Corazon where our lovely hostess Rebecca brings us all together to share a haiku on Friday: Haiku my Heart.

Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Look up at the sky today.
Breath fresh air. Enjoy
and have a great weekend.

    I think I see a teddy bear picnic in the clouds.

    This Friday… we are both beneath the vast sky of the sea. I touch the water and it touches you and me back. Thank you, my friend, for this beauty and your small words of listening with all of our heart…

    It does take standing still and listening to hear those old, old stories. Wonderful photo and haiku!
