In a park, two tall trees are growing intertwined. It’s impossible to know which one is supporting the other. One cannot imagine one without the other. Should one be cut, the other would be probably uprooted, lose its stability entirely. General feeling: togetherness, love, support.

Craters in your wake
I’m a pain-drenched #resonance
Of our unsung parts.

Mirage of stone fields,
Where shadows lament the loss
Of love's resonance.

Flowing, we seek collective,

On a high railing, above head-level, is suspended a soft toy Superman. He’s quite flat. He’s attached to a metal pole (top of the railing) by a black string, that is passing from his forehead and through his head. Although someone hung it there, so that a parent of the child that lost it could find it; it is still a human shape hung high above. The fact that it’s also a Superman and that his cape is not flapping in the wind, it’s even more powerful, this eternal, immuable painted smile on his fabric face. He’s stuck there, but pretending all is fine. General feeling: Who are you kidding? We see what we see. Sometimes it’s just that. Trust your guts.

Was it a #mirage
Or did I catch you smiling?
Shy, you look away.

My shade garden with layers of stone and perennial plants.

moss and stone
some of us thrive
in the shadows

Some kind of vision,
A mirage my starving mind
Has conjured, a trick.

The photograph shows tall sturdy rocks. Like secular giants, weary by all what they have seen, they resist the tooth of time, sloughing slightly under its weight. Athe their feet, a green lush bush and grass; above them bright blue, evening summer sky. General feeling: there are some things that are immuable, others are passing, like the clouds in the wind. Don’t gesticulate too much, or you will miss the “now”, the moments of grace.

The doubt casts its shade
Fate halts. Is all set in #stone?
Sands shift: Love is home.

Language, layered in pressure,
Real millennials.

Inside of the majestic Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway, the organs seem to be levitating in the mid-air and to be either partially devoured by the shadows underneath, or being carried by them. The more the organs shine, the darker are the shadows underneath. Above, the rosacea is in the pinkish colours, softening the bony ogives of the ceiling and of the organ tubes. It’s almost alive, like a rib cage extending with every breath. It breathes in light and grace, exhales shadows and serenity. Never have I ever been so overwhelmed by beauty to the point that I wanted to weep. General feeling: transcending beauty like this is otherworldly, godly. It felt like my rib cage was about to be ripped open. Something wanted out and it was shattering me. And yet, that was until I heard the organs play! But with the sound of the organs…I wasn’t even touching the ground anymore.

Sole grace’s whisper
And even the #shadow’s soul
Will fade, echo out.

A tree at the CUTHBERT’s cemetery in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is very spiky; impossible to touch the accumulation of these leaves without pricking your finger. Yet, its shape is so intriguing, it’s of such beauty that it’s almost impossible not to reach out your fingers and at least to try to brush them against its branches. I don’t know why, but it makes me think of monkeys. Maybe because the branches are twisted, curled like the monkeys tails, when sitting on a tree. It could be also snakes curling up and down on the tree branches. General feeling: it’s like a guardian of the eternal repose for people burried here. It feels at the same time somewhat whimsical and menacing. Just like life and death. Neither should be taken seriously.

Don’t #lament. Your fate
Is not made solely of spikes
Tender in the heart.

Regret that follows,
Stalking, each day a lament
To steady these hands.

Dear all,

Yes, I could LAMENT that the STONE on my SHADOW blocked the MIRAGE when all I wanted was RESONANCE.

Our Brida Community mystery word chooser from Saudi Arabia has come up with some cracking words for this week.

Let's Haiku!

Best
Frank

First echo of rain
Drops on petals, bird cocks
His head, nostalgic.

On the shining white tablecloth, there is some cutlery. The table is set for 2, but there’s only one person. 2 glasses turned upside down throw beautiful, shiny reflections. Though the whole scene baths in sunlight, the colour seems to be missing, the life colour of joy and happiness that would emanate when two persons in love meet.

I’m #nostalgic; sad.
You’re not sitting opposite.
I miss your colour.

The photo is of an amazing rose rose bush, generously growing over the fence. There are many opened buds, in different stages of bloom. The colours go from whitish pink through soft pink or even to fuchsia. Beauty, love, happiness, joy, all these are multiplied if shared. Roses don’t think, they just ARE and spread the beauty, the perfume, the generosity tirelessly. General feeling: beauty, love, sharing, joy of life.

How many #petals
Have you opened? How many
Have you spoiled; alone?
