Goodmorning lovely ones. I was absent last Friday because Lena (yes – my friend who makes the photos that inspire me to write haiku) and I were out to make more memories! Early Friday morning we drove to a nearby lake-area where we went for a long stroll. She took a lot of photos during our walk and afterwards we sat underneath a tree and I sketched the scenery.
The photo is made by my friend Lena Schreijenberg

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.
It was a nice, sunny day. Here’s me sitting in the shadow of a tree, sketching the bridge in the distance.
I go out and sketch every now and then and I found out I am a ‘free sketcher’. I try to capture the feel and mood more than trying to draw accurate. For instance, I don’t know if the poles of the fence are the right number…
When I see this sketch, I think back on a lovely day.
Enjoy your weekend.
Go do something fun.
Sketch a bridge!
Mooie foto’s en mooie schets. Heerlijk hè buiten zitten schilderen/tekenen. Mooie foto weer van Lena
dear one, your sketch is charming and transports me right beside you to a day of shimmering light and shadow, of following ones creative heart and yes-i can even hear the laughter and feel the joy of friends together on a sweet summer day. thank you for bringing all this joy and light to our haiku circle!
Cool clear water. It mirrors purity not often seen! Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!
Oh, how Lena’s photos and your sketching transports me to such beauty and serenity! What a fun outing Marit, and I thank you for sharing it with us all.
The cormorant is no fool. He knows that humans aren’t always trustworthy.
Your sketch is wonderful! And…I can see that cormorant take flight.
Oh wow! What a lovely combination ~ your friend’s photo, your haiku and your delightful sketch ~ thanks!
Happy Day to You,

Prachtig plaatje, zowel je sketch als hoe je er bij zit. Heerlijk, genieten hoor!
I’m sure the cormorant is relieved now you’re gone!
