#Haiku Happenings #1 (3/31/18): Janice’s latest haiku sequence for Carpe Diem!

What is enough time
flowing from dark to darkness
days or years away
~
a butterfly…
needs no answers
to flutter
~
lady bugs
their lives passing by
on my window sill
~
happiness
living like a butterfly
each moment is enough

My reflections are in response to Carpe Diem Weekend Meditation #25: Use that Quote. Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) is a celebrated Indian poet who won a Nobel Prize for Literature in recognition of his work “Gitanjali” —he wrote it in Bengali and then translated it into English. The 1913 English translation includes an introduction by W.B. Yeats.
