We are icons (images) of the Divine heart, created out of love, whole and beautiful. Life from time to time clouds over our image. But this is not the end, not left on the trash heap of society. We can seek healing, a new life, a new direction.
There are many healing modalities that can bring this healing, this new life, this new direction. Here I offer haiku poetry.
Haiku is a snapshot, a word picture of the present moment. We start with the moment new find ourselves, where we are, a word picture. As we reflect and write our first haiku new word pictures lead to new insights and new haiku until we come to a moment of healing. This last haiku brings iy to a new snapshot, new word picture and thus healing a new life, new direction.
The number of haiku is not important. What is that we go with each new thought until we each that healing new moment.
Here are some samples of haiku that may help you to get started writing and healing. From time to time there will be new samples.
LIstening, fathom
gathering hurts - nurturing.
Joyful angels sing.
You are beautiful.
Created from Light and Love -
a new creation.
Created, gifted,
yet robbed, hurt, wounded of self.
Angels still sing you.
Come to the pools - look.
Peer deep in Silence"s love.
Behold your beauty.
Silence rebirths you.
Fresh, clean, your new day dawning.
Go forth - live new life.
Darkning, waiting days
seeds lay dormant in patience
Our lives are sown seeds.
Our lives of fullness
rich wombs of patient waiting
Advent lives growing
Winter of waiting
browsing, musing, planning now
Summer of growth awaits.
Spring time sowing growth
soils prepared to receive
more patient waiting.
Waiting slowly, growth
looking for signs of seedlings
Hoping for new signs
Advent, winter, spring
patient waiting for new growth
New seasons coming
Healing, birthing time.
Long dark seasons into light
green growth from waiting.
