Haiku 2021 Part 28, #192-8

 #192

This creeping feeling
have I written this before?
repeated thinking

#193

Greatest love story
soul's discovery within
deep peaceful beauty

#194

Tickling nose of joy
having-napped satisfaction
sweet relaxing doze

#195

Rainiest July
Moist dampness, downright soaking
wet saturation

#196

Polyamory
past life sexy sharing love
jealous abundance

#197

This heart has felt things
burst with joy, fallen steeply,
grown, broken, and healed

#198

Dirty yoga mat
flecked and streaked from floor and foot
righteously filthy

Myself, I studied abroad in Italy one summer, then subsequently travelled to other European countries, including France, the UK, Ireland. I’ve also greatly enjoyed other parts of the world I’ve had the privilege to explore: New Zealand and Peru. I first visited German just over a year ago, in July

Happy Earth Day! Oops, already shared my one explicitly environmental poem on day 20… Still deeply concerned about the state of our planet and keen to preserve our ecosystem for future generations of humans and all of the creatures. What actions will you take to protect habitat, reduce your footprint, and cherish the earth today?  I suppose a sense of wonder at creation is related to a sense of responsibility and stewardship, so poetry- wise my themes of the day are innocence and exploration, reverence and discovery. The William Blake excerpt contemplates time and space through concrete experience of this moment, and my original of the day (from 2010) explores the drive to find connection.  From “Auguries of Innocence” By William Blake To see the World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower, Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour.
