connecting
to the source of creation
thankfulness
the day basks in goodness
for so it was firstly made
Christmas music
there's joy in the waiting
again this year
recurring dawn birds yet
sometimes a new thrill
yellow ixoras
where bees breakfast
undisturbed
raindrops sparkle for dew
now no longer glistens
umbrella opened
rain pellets drum their song...
early morning walk
the green of the mountains
like the answer to a prayer
the young man
at the fast food outlet...
his smile
ripened avocado
no need for butter
nightfall
scent of the moon
out of reach
only the twinkle of stars
catch the fantasy of dreams

I so love "the green of the mountains like the answer to prayer". Beautiful imagery in this wonderful poem.
Lovely... even though I saw the word "thankful" (the challenge was not to use any derivative of thankful or grateful in the poem).
Sherry thank you for your appreciation

Laurie, happy you dropped in thanks for your appreciation

A beautiful thing, this sequence of haiku! Glimpses of grateful hearts. I enjoyed the mans smile as much as the grand mountain.
Lovely. Made me feel good to read this. What more could one want from a poem!
This sounds musical ... these are a few of my favorite things. Lovely writing.
I like so very much what you did with this prompt. Each stanza resonates with me ..... each is a beautiful image worth considering. I like especially the 'the green of the mountains like an answer to a prayer.' Thanks for taking part in Poetry Jam!
So many great lines! I especially like the idea of rain pellets drumming their song! I'll think of this next time I'm walking in the rain - it will make the walk much more enjoyable!
