daydreams —
the northern sky
honks

—

Daydreaming often begins with a small sound that pulls us gently out of ourselves. The honking above feels both distant and familiar, a shifting line of travellers moving through the pale northern sky. For a moment, thought drifts upward with them, carried along by the rhythm of wings and open air.

First published on NaHaiWriMo.

If you’re new to haiku, Your First Haiku In Ten Simple Steps is a gentle place to start.
