Carpe Diem Special #62
The goal is to write a new haiku in the same sense, tone and spirit as the inspirational haiku by Garry Gay.

My inspired haiku:
Photo by Grace Beam (Lowest pool is crown chakra) |
vision quest
seven pools in canyon
become chakras
(My first ceremony in Sedona was hiking a canyon path to cleanse my chakras. After the ceremony I was shown the seven different shaped pools that are known as the chakras. The pool most filled with water that day went with the chakra most needing work, coincidentally or not ~ my throat chakra.)
Loved the reference to chakras :-)
ReplyDeleteMysteriously mystical!

ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Pirate!
DeleteVery nice haiku Maggie ...I like the reference to the chakras and that makes this haiku a spiritual masterpiece. Namaste.
ReplyDeleteinteresting on the pools and their meaning...what a cool quest you went on there...it rather fascinates me....
ReplyDeleteIt fascinated me too, Brian. I knew I had to go there to integrate through internal messages. So watching it play out was very cool.
DeleteSeven...the sacred number...
ReplyDeleteI loved your reference to the chakras.
