life is messy (haiga)

At Carpe Diem Sparkling Stars, our inspirational haiku by Shiki:

when I looked back,
the man who passed
was lost in the mist © Masaoka Shiki

wakeful moments
just mistaken reveries
rolling into days

day after day
lost in a sea of fog
life is messy

old woman
chips away at what was home
lost in whiteout

  1. Wow, that last picture with the words put within the frame of the picture itself. That was powerful. I probably wouldn’t have noticed the image in the waaaay back if those words weren’t there. They made me look again.
