haiku my heart - ebb and flow



Ebb tide quiets life







Only to send it flowing



Back, fish in the net.


Haiku my heart is the vision of Rebecca Brooks at "recuerda mi corazon." If you would like to participate, just post your haiku on Fridays with an accompanying photo on your blog and link back to recuerda mi corazon.

    Wonderful photos and post. I'm jealous. I'd love to be at the ocean the entire month of August.

    I thought of this quote by Henry Nouwen when I read your post: "Dear Lord: Today I thought of the words of Vincent Van Gogh, 'It is true that there is an ebb and flow, but the sea remains the sea.' You are the sea."

    Love & Blessings,
    Marion

    I love all the photos too. Either they are old polaroids or the processing is spot on! This is a very inspirational post!! The images and words together seem like a homecoming...

    Something so soothing when even just looking at waves of water.

    Now that's a beautiful philosophy to remember in those times of one's life that seem to be at ebb tide. Those soft old photo colours are gorgeous.

    it is all about the give and take, the opening and closing, the welcoming and the letting go. there is such deep grace here and the reward of a filled net. i love your trust, your quiet believing heart.

    you have peacefully emptied me, and so splendidly filled me up!
