An extremely busy husband and father is trying to lead a more contemplative life. He writes a haiku every day to find the essence of the many small, but important, moments in his life.

white fingers reach out
to the cloud blanket overhead
the torso to the earth beneath
Derek, I have really enjoyed your posts! Very beautiful... I can respect the simplicity, it leaves a lot to the imagination. Sometimes too many words overwhelm me. I like that you have reflected nature in many of these. I have often thought about keeping a daily journal. In it I would attempt to spend time outside everyday and notice something about the earth around me that I hadn't before. Anyhow, keep up the good work!
Hey, thanks Lacy. I really appreciate you commenting on the blog. I have really felt that this is a healthy process and is helping deal with the stress of life. You should keep that journal.
