Two Haiku for TJ’s Household Haiku Challenge. This week’s prompt word is “Tide”.
tides of greatest change
dredge through stagnant surfaces
no stone left unturned.
a fleeting riptide
offers escape for the wise
who go with the flow.

to ride the wind
like a whirligig
in the browning
stage of life…to
spin adrift on
the vortex of one’s
own imagining, having
snapped free from
the tip of rooted
branches that burrow
deep into the heart…to
drift to earth only to
split asunder…and
when all seems
lost, to explode
into rooting tendrils
reaching deep
deep, deep…
sometimes one
must abandon
everything…
surrender in free
dizzy-ing fall,
to find home.
