shady forest hideaway
here the sky is green

Optical Illusion – A Haiku
I found this week’s photo prompt by TJ for his Household Haiku Challenge a bit perplexing. Blame it on my astigmatism! I stared long and hard trying to decide whether I was looking down at a reflective pool or through a rocky portal…hence my chaotic little out-of order Haiku. What do you see, now that I’ve planted that perspective in your head? Things are not always what they seem! 😉 This week’s prompt words with the synonyms I used for this week’s Haiku in parentheses are Chaos (muddle) & Order (tranquil).

“Hello there.”
“What?! Who said that? Who’s there?!”
“I’m down here.”
“But, you’re a rock!”
“That’s right! My name is Terrance A. Cotta, the 1003rd, but you can call me Terry…get it? Sheesh! Humans are so dense!”
“I’m going crazy!”
“Oh, get over yourself! You and I are made of the same stuff you know. You’re just mucilaginous. I was once a mountain. I soared so high I danced with the clouds.”
“Mucilaginous? What’s that mean? Never mind. I’m outa here!”
“Oh well, off you go then. But I could tell you things, if you’d listen. I could tell you things…”

Intuition’s Murmur – Magnetic Poetry Monday
breathe the sun
feel the blue
listen to shady green
and follow rosy cloud
blossoms to where
ancient rocks sing
secret songs of your
souls deep quiet
