Absorption

~ ~ ~ Haiku string

By Rowan Finley Published 11 months ago 1 min read

Squishy mud hugs toes

Chest rises and falls, like sea

No clouds seen today

~ ~ ~

Planes fly over head

Crab on shore is mostly dead

Kids run other way

~ ~ ~

Kayaks stand erect

Nobody seems to rent them

One day, I will though

~ ~ ~

Volleyball rolls down

Glaring sun causes a frown

Forgot sunglasses

~ ~ ~

Water is so clear

Left all the ill fear behind

Joy is captain, right?

~ ~ ~

Held in time so sweet

Positive energy treat

Soaking warmth right now

    This haiku sequence is like a gentle ocean breeze—calming, vivid, and effortlessly immersive. Joy better be the captain—no mutiny allowed on this peaceful escape! 🙂✨
