joy from watching koi
graceful statements of freedom
every soul should swim
*
timeless truths reveal
earth and man dwell under stars
bonsai fingers reach
**
move as the willows
bonsai lifestyle releases
bend without breaking
***
rippled light streaming
dappled moonbeams water dance
life's wave moves forward
****
anchored thoughts grow roots
eternal entanglements
feathered dreams take flight
*****

I do think it's impossible to just write one!     Enjoyed these, Kacy!  All unpacked?

Hey, Karilea, I left most everything packed at the new place, flew to Vancouver Island
And then some, Ed. New plans may include  moving again next year to Vancouver Island (aka paradise)

very, very nice
my favorite line:

dappled moonbeams water dance

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

How you did this without your brain hurting, I'm not sure..

I write haiku, and find myself counting on my own fingers..

Wonderful job, I couldn't have done it any better!
