Time for Monday Haibun in the dVerse Poets Pub
The Snow Moon is a reminder that change is not always showy. It illuminates the gentle stirrings that often create the most meaningful shifts. This is the time to trust the stillness and the truth of your own knowing. **
February's Snow Moon
It has taken me close to eighty-three years .. a long time, to understand and fully appreciate my journey here on Earth. How my actions, absence of action impacted those I love. Forgiveness is precious .. I have joyfully granted, and received it.

This is beautiful, Helen, and i resonate. We carry a lot of memories in this season of our lives. At peace with oneself is a wonderful place to be.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous haiku, Helen!
ReplyDeleteIt takes a lifetime to get this far, but the peace that comes from such a discovery though hardwon, is priceless. Loved this haibun, Helen, and especially "while the moon is being lit," evocative of sanctuary.
ReplyDeleteI love the way the moon could help you to come at ease and get forgiveness... we need closure.
ReplyDeleteThis one really gets you in the feels, you know? Like, it's all about looking deep inside and finding that chill vibe under the cozy glow of the Snow Moon.
ReplyDeleteMuch love,

It's really true that wisdom needs years to grow. How lucky you are to have found both peace and forgiveness.

ReplyDeleteAww!! You are sooo humble and accepting. Also the envy of many, the average person doesn't live so long.
