Haiku Friday - Places I go

Haiku Friday



The places I've been,
Inform, enhance, and adjust,
The places I go.



 

The southwest coast of England, on a typically cloudy day in winter. This is downstream from the canal locks at Bude, Cornwall, England, which keep the canal from emptying into the sea.

I love the drama in that sky, the reflection in the water, the sunrays through the clouds, the soft colour of the whole scenery, the peacefulness ... LOVELY.

Thank you, Dearest Lou, for your concern. I'm fine -- just had a very hectic two weeks that left me drained and to baffled to post. I got an urgent call from Mom on the 6th saying I needed to come to Amarillo -- they were putting Daddy in the hospital so off I went. I was there a week (he is doing fine, home now, getting stronger) and then this week has just been racing from one thing to another as some weeks can be. Hopefully things are calming down and I can get a post written, or just post this response as a post until I have more time and energy.

Love the pictures, will read the story another time.

What a beautiful view and point of view in your haiku.

There is always something so magical about clouds kissing the edge of water.

Lovely as always. Makes me want to get out and see more of the world.
