Coaxing my mind’s eye,
My father’s words while sailing:
Watch for the wind now.
(Thanks, too, to the women of One Deep Breath
for their continuing inspiration. And a special
birthday cyberhug for my amazing dad!)

Lovely photo which you have captured perfectly in your haiku
ReplyDeleteThis feels so safe, not a comment I expected to make about being at sea.
ReplyDeleteThe photo and the words let me feel the coming of the breeze
ReplyDeleteSending a very Happy birthday wish to your dad
Beautifully done! :)
ReplyDeleteShelley, the photo is full of mystery and adventure, and the accompanying haiku is a perfect marriage of the two, very peaceful as well. Kudos to you for this one!
ReplyDeleteJust love that photo, and what a great memory to record in your beautiful poem.
ReplyDeletethis one sure brought a lump to my throat...my own dad doesn't sail but all of the sentiment that goes with this lovely haiku sure made me relate (and smile)...thanks!
ReplyDeleteGlad you treasure your dad.
ReplyDeleteLovely image of sailing.
