Closed my eyes and wished

The wind whisked my dreams away

Somewhere a weed grows

    Your haiku is beautiful and thought-provoking. It captures the essence of letting go of our wishes and desires and trusting the winds of life to carry them away. Despite the uncertainty of its location, the image of the weed growing somewhere reminds me of the resilience and strength of nature. Thank you, Paula, for sharing your words with us. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ŒπŸ˜Š

    Short and sweet, Paula, and I love the wuthering of the alliteration. As Sarah said, a haiku seed!

    Some versions of WordPress won’t let me “like.” (I had a WordPress account once through Blogjob; when Blogjob fell apart I had no access to the account.) So I have to type a comment just to say I liked it. Well, I liked it.

    I could write some but
    Today, laughing and taunting
    Impish Muse flits by

    A weed is a flower that’s growing in the wrong place (somebody once said said).
