I found my soul, in

the wake of a shooting star,

still chasing the light.

    Cathy, this is lovely and so deep as it speaks to all those existential questions we have about souls, the universe, and our place in it.

    This is such a cool, Haiku, Cathy! I love the music in your phrasing and the final line, still chasing the light, creates such a powerful sensory image. The pic is incredible, too!
