Evolving Emotions: Surprise- Poetry
A Wonderous Day
Sun’s rays force squinting eyes
Grass curls between tiny toes
Laughter swirling in air swept
by each cool breeze
Bubbling waters in the pond
dug by able hands
for fish and shelled creatures
to lay and unwind
Tingling hands
A shift in the air
Heads turning in unison
to the house just across the yard
Rushing past familiar beauty
towards an enthralling mystery
behind four walls
Once inside
figures crowded round
blocking view
Some gasp or shriek of glee
at a sight to behold
In the center of the circle
comes barking
Pushing past
there it is
the dog you will know
for years to come
It will touch your life
in a way only it could
But for now,
you gaze in its eyes
and marvel over this wonderous surprise

Sagas Among the Arcana: Three Haikus
This week, I wrote Haikus for the cards I pulled!
The Seven of Wands
high competition
burns savage embers within
in the end, burnt out
The Seven of Cups
that fisherman caught
seven golden fish – he’s rich!
let’s hope he spends it wisely
Death
mounted, she’s patient
the sun rises a new day
halt your impatience
