A Stone On the Bed of a River

Sometimes I feel like a stone on the bed of a fast-flowing mountain river: namelessness, immobility, contemplation;

nor past nor future
instantaneous rapid 
stream of illusions

well done, kurt. I sure like seeing these mini haibuns. I don't like reading LONG ones.

I can envision the sounds and scents of a cool mountain river and it is so tranquil. I love the surreal vibes in this peaceful Haibun Kurt. : ) xxoo
