Catching The Sun

Haiku, 3 Parts

caught the sun today —
placed it on a pedestal
and watched it burn bright

perfect clouds hovered,
waiting for their chance to shine —
sun would not bow down.

clouds questioned the sun,
“when will your reign be over?”
sun did not respond.

I traveled home to Savannah, Georgia this past weekend for a mini vacation and truly enjoyed myself. Here are a few pictures and a haiku.

Back home to my roots

Found some time to simply rest

Sun was more than kind

Happy Days

My oldest nephew Jeremiah. My youngest niece Sarai.
My baby cousin Caison and I. Christmas Eve, 2018.
And again.
My niece, the dimpled dream, Kali.
My nephew Jr., always frowning. Lol.
My oldest niece Tierney, the eldest of them all. This young one is so incredibly intelligent, it truly renders me speechless.

The two things that I am sincerely proud of is being an Auntie and a big cousin. If I could divvy out my heart equally to each of these wondrous beings, I would. Time and distance keeps us apart more than I believe that it should, but I am most grateful for photos, the phone, and the US Postal service.

through pictures, we share

an undeniable love,

one that will not die
