December Joy

When I opened poet-slicer, Margaret Simon's blog this weekend, I found a delightful photo she took while her little grandchildren frolicked in the sun. See This Photo Wants to be a Poem: Fountain. 

I decided to crop Margaret's photo to observe it closer. What evolved was a  #haikuofhealing and an elfchen of peace.

joy explodes
when water splish splashes
nature applauds

When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.-Ansel Adams

May you capture the spirit of the holidays this year through nature.

Christmas Eve is upon us, so I wish everyone a silent pause for a moment of presence on this soon-to-be-luminous evening of joy.

in chilled moments
silent stillness holds its breath
world awaits joy
