Art Pages ~ haiku pages will be included soon and then the cover Above photo is the first stage of my Sketchbook for the Sketchbook Project 2013. As indicated, I will be including pages of my haiku and then will stitch the cover and pages together. Hopefully, I will have this completed within the next two weeks. The theme, obviously is my 'blessing bowls' that I have been creating for several recent posts. Sharing today with: Paint Party Friday Haiku My Heart Creative Everyday So hop on over to see the wonderful variety of artists at Paint Party Friday and Creative Everyday. At Haiku My Heart, you will find very talented haiku poets. Haiku originated in Japan and is poetry based upon lines and syllables in each line. I tend to write in the rather classic form of 17 syllables and a 5-7-5 sequence. There are a variety of ways to write haiku. haiku waiting, lagging on be present, precious moment cherish, let go. -o- being in the now taoism emphasizes concept ancient, living now. -o- breathe in nature's air see all round, below, above beauty surrounding. -o- Hope you are enjoying this post and will enjoy those we are sharing with today. Wishing you a loving and fun weekend. Hugs and namaste, and We love to have you post your comments, thoughts or questions to delight us all in the day, especially, ArtMuse Dog ^_^ QUOTE FOR THE DAY: 'It is only when the mind is free from the old that it meets everything anew, and in that there is joy.' ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti |

ReplyDeleteYour work on yours is wonderful...a great inspiration. I love the fact that you're including your haikus along with your beautifully colorful sketches.
Thanks for the reminder to be in the now!
ReplyDeleteWonderfully composed triplet ... my favorite is the third verse ... it's a strong spiritual one.
ReplyDeleteAll your pages look so pretty displayed together like that!
ReplyDeleteHow nice to see your bowls all together. Are you going to duplicate them at all? It is a wonderful series.
ReplyDeleteThese pages are a delight! So colorful!
ReplyDeleteHaiku for Your Heart
Hello Carol, It is great seeing all of your note pages laid out together. I love your haiku. Patience is one of my greatest teachers, probably the thing I struggle with the most... I'm finding new ways to be with the letting go, patience and letting go... much like your wise words of being in the breath and in the now. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSorry for visiting so late, but this has been a busy week. Thanks for your comment on 'olly 'ocks.
ReplyDeleteThanks also for sharing your creativity!
Lovely pages for your sketchbook, lovely concept! Awesome haikus, love them all!
