Keeping place and time
for vegs to go to seed
is like looking at a whole rainbow

(I know it's not an haiku ..............

this belongs to this thread

"I eat my peas with honey
I've done so all my life
It makes the peas taste funny
But it keeps them on the knife"

was it you Joy?

And another poem I heard for the first time last week

The Swan

The labouring through what is still undone,
as though, legs bound, we hobbled along the way,
is like the awkward walking of the swan.

And dying – to let go, no longer feel
the solid ground we stand on every day
is like his anxious letting himself fall
into the water, which receives him gently
and which, as though with reverence and joy,
draws back past him in streams on either side;
while, infinitely silent and aware,
in his full majesty and ever more
indifferent, he condescends to glide.

By: Rainer Maria Rilke

O that is a lovely one Ashen.
I got sidetracked from this being a homemade haiku thread. I am glad you didn't.
