five periwinkles opened -
in pandemic lockdown days
a delight to count
inbreath -
counting blessings in between
exercise stretches
morning clouds shape
stretch of imagination -
to divine grace

The middle haiku sounds like the best of invitations. I think I will follow on the speaker's steps. Stretches and exercises will very likely be stronger while counting blessings.
ReplyDeleteI have been counting the spider lily blooms in the balcony on these days of lockdown. And I will count my blessings during my yoga session tomorrow
ReplyDeleteGood. Happy you dropped by Namratha
