Carpe Diem #1263 neighborhood of colors After living for many decades in locations a little too monochrome in their occupants, I am pleased to be living in an apartment complex populated by a wide spectrum of colors and tones. What joy to look up while on a walk to see someone who looks nothing like a 70 year old white woman. To see the young mother in her hijab walking with her children. To hear the rhythm of a different language floating across the pool. To see the sun set profiling the gay couple as they embrace. Yes, I am loving this neighborhood of colors. jewels glisten at sunset © petra domina Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI

ReplyDeleteYes, short and sweet.
ReplyDeleteMasterful. I remember you did this style a few years back, where you caught everything that needed to be caught in just the essence of the haiku. You did it again, though this time, of course, so pertinent.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Hamish. Thought I would try the brief approach again and, yes, timely for this area.
DeleteStunning, Janice!! and even more touching with your reality. Hugs xx
