TROIKU - BREEZY
chasing a fly
a newspaper rolled to use
as a swatter

a disturbance
in silent meditation mode -
that buzzing sound

eyes fixed
regardless of the breeze
lifting the curtains

Experiencing all that surrounds us. Nice.

Wendy Bourke said...

An awesome little capture. You've sketched a lovely breezy troika scene here, Gillena. Nicely done. There is something about the word 'breezy', I find, that just seems to lift a poetic moment … even a moment chasing a fly ~ smiles ~

I smiled and read this a few times. I have a fly in my house right now that refuses to leave or be swatted. Love your illustration.

Having a housefly flying around is quite common here .. though I prevent them from coming in. Lovely write, Gillena!❤️

Your drawing and Haiku were impressive. I took a calligraphy class last year but don't find much time to practice it.

We have bees buzzing at Poets United, and a trapped fly buzzing here - on the same page today, Gillena. Smiles.

I do like poetry and thoughts about real life. An annoying fly is real life. As is the breeze, and I felt it coming through your curtains.
