old prayers (haiku for one deep breath)

Once I asked to be
filled with Love. Didn’t count on
forgetting its name.
~
the blue backed magpie
crosses my path and flinches
into my pale dreams

Fascinating haiku. Both are very deep and offer up strong images.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

I came back to read this again and didn't remember the second. These are both really evocative. I like the way you deliver the final image in both. blue backed magpie.. Very nice. The art is really quite interesting!

Nice poems and art. Oh, and I went to read my horoscope!

These are both wonderful. I love that zen-like feeling of 'forgetting its name' and 'into..pale dreams'.
And who cannot like an artist who can also write poetry so well. (And thanks for stopping by.)

While I love your first one -- and won't forget your blog's name any time soon -- the art is spectacular.
