Silent Zen music
surrounds Uncertainty’s noise
with quiet comfort
During the noise of this US election I am grateful to have had the chance to get away and see one of the many beautiful northern coasts of Michigan. I wrote this haiku before I left and never had the chance to post with all the traveling. When I transferred the photos from my phone I found the perfect “mistake” photo that seemed to represent Uncertainty’s noise. So I thought I would surround that photo with two quiet ones. All three photos are originals taken of Lake Michigan sunrises from Glen Arbor, MI.
I am grateful for this time to find my center again, meditating outside in the cool autumn air with the constantly random rhythms of the waves lapping against the shore.
Wind Rush 
Great place to find your inner peace.

It has been a blessing to get away from the noise at home. There is just something so soothing about seeing a sunrise against this vast body of water. Hope your day is filled with peace as well.

Beautiful pictures, LuAnne. But I think I like the “mistake” picture the best. 😆

Thank you! I guess I clicked while I was moving the camera. 🙂 It was serendipity I guess. Thanks for dropping by.

This is so lovely LuAnne and I love ‘mistake’ pictures, they often hold something special or symbolic within.

Yes, it is interesting what the heart “sees” when eyes are looking elsewhere.

Thank you, Michael. The two – words and images – seemed to come together at different times. But it fit. Glad you stopped by.

Beautiful haiku and I actually LIKE the second picture. The circular motion (or what looks like it) makes it seem like a time travel picture. 😀

Thanks, Lady C. I liked it too. I think I accidentally hit the button while I was still moving the camera up to take a photo. Or maybe when I had finished taking a photo and was putting the camera away. Either way the camera was in motion and yes, it was a bit of time travel I suppose. 🙂
