Make the universe your companion, always bearing in mind the true nature of things—mountains and rivers, trees and grasses, and humanity—and enjoy the falling blossoms and the scattering leaves. ~Bashō

He Doodles You 'Ku - Day 1-8
Take a peek at what's happening on Auburie Cox's Yay Words! You won't believe how much the group has grown in a week, not to mention the fantastic haiku and tanka for HM Yuan's doodles that have piled up.
Catching up on the days that I've missed, here's what I came up with. Nothing compared to my personal favorites, but hey, at least I'm trying. :-)
Click a specific day to see the doodles and everybody's posts.
the sinking sun
lingers at the brim
of your cup
how long can I stop you
from leaving
~ 0 ~
no time left
to say goodbye . . .
withered rose
I let the wind
speak for me . . .
winter tree
holding on
to what's left of him . . .
fading sun
Christmas moon—
the memory of her
peppermint breath
winter buds
the morning unfolds
between my silence
fork on the road—
his choices
almost identical
cloud formation
where do I begin
telling you
sudden wind—
her childhood days
snatched too soon

Hooked on Doodles
Since the "I Doodle, You 'Ku" challenge on Yay Words! ended last Saturday, I've been having withdrawal symptoms. What's the doodle (sketch) for today??!!! I have to admit that it was really addictive! I'm blaming Kirsten Cliff for posting this unique challenge on her blog Swimming in Lines of Haiku. :-) I caught the doodle fever! hahahaha
Seriously, Aubrie Cox did a fantastic job of coming up with 31 days of doodleku. Each doodle elicited new things for me to write about. Not only that, she successfully managed to attract a small comfortable group of talented poets.
To extend the fun I had, I decided to post one by one the haiku I've written in response to her daily doodle.
