A few memories of my travels in India, its tales, attempt at photography, my sentiments on India and now and then, a bit of poetry, and reflection on other topics.
pray that i may wake to jays, robins, and chicadees before the alarm
thanks for reminding me how much i love to wake and listen for a few minutes before the alram...as the sun begins to take my window...the birds take my dreams and offer a roll-the-credits song!
Celine, you are really tempting me to try my hand at some.. I had differnt opinions about haikus, but nw I think nothing like them fr instant gratification ! :)
This morning, on my way to work, I briefly stopped by the beach. I watched the clear blue sky, enjoyed the waves crashing the shore, watched birds flying, and I loved the breeze (though a bit too warm) on my face. I am at work now and smiling thinking of the warmth of another beautiful day!
Do visit my new blog to view my online photo album of photographs of Kuwait and from around the world: http://indicainq8.wordpress.com

After a long cold and rainy week in Seattle, this haiku was a blessing to remind me that there is warmth and color.
A great way to meet the day.
Lovely answer to the prompt. And the portrait/photo of the little girl below is so lovely and deeply touching.

That was lovely and the pic a sight for sore eyes :)
The sound of nature. So often missed (covered up) in the cities. I am lucky to get it too, although not in such dramatic settings.
Love the warmth of this!
I've been waking to the "meow" of catbirds.
a great beginning to a new day..reminds me of Pippa's song
Lakshmi

The birds do welcome the day. I love their song in the morning.

Thank you very much for your kind words.:)
RIC,
I thank you for the beautiful Haiku you adorned here and for your sweet words.:)
Indrani,
Thank you. I wish you a great week too.:)
Lavanya,
5-7-5 syllables. Simple!!
If possible, do add a seasonal or nature word, but these days for modern Haiku even that is not necessary.;)
So, don't stop. To some it's also a stress buster. It's much fun. You'll love it. Start with it immediately. I shall be over to you shortly.:)
Sameera,
Thank you, am glad you enjoyed it.:)

Welcome to my blog, and thank you for your comment.
It seems we have both been attracted to the 'warmth' in the 'melody.':)

Those songbirds wake you up Darlene!?

All 's right with the world!
That's a great one.:)
