A haiku a day...

Friday
Tiny spider hangs
on a thread from the man's head,
(he's oblivious).
 
Saturday
A double rainbow
so bright we all stop, delight,
at light refractions.
 
Sunday
Dance with me my love,
we'll defy the morning light,
and twirl round instead.
 
Monday
Roll over, fall back
into deep sleep, dream quickly
before day begins.
 
Tuesday
Splash, dash, skip and dodge,
running a rainy errand
avoiding puddles.

Wednesday
Spark, whirl, chatter, zing!
So pleased you got your groove back,
my fun frenzied friend.

Thursday
Tonight I miss you,
the way we hold each other,
a bundle of arms.

"We live in a rainbow of chaos"

Looking through my photos from the last few years, I realised that I have lots of different photos of things in nature that are all one bright brazen colour. Here they are, making up my very own rainbow....


Red berries in a garden nearby


The orange sky one dawn morning on the beach in Scotland


Yellow blossoms from a hedge earlier this spring...


Bright green leafy goodness in the Queen's woods in London this spring


Blue Sea turning into sky, the view from the top of the mountain in Ischia a few autumns ago


Early evening lilac haze on the beach in Scotland one new year's


Purplish-pink sky as the sun set above London a few weeks ago


Pink cherry blossom on the trees on my street this spring. The same trees that are now all kinds of autumn colours


Sometimes, however, things are more black and white...
Piles of black slate piled up on the mountainside in Wales and a white snow scene on Dartmoor last Christmas

And sometimes, if you're really lucky, nature shows off a bit and you get to see all the colours at once...

Paul Cezanne is right - we do live in "a rainbow of chaos" - and it sure is pretty :)
