When ever i see sunlight piercing through grey skies and more i always find hope too, and this haiku is so well written on new beginnings and despite the dreariness and all that, we still find hope through little things in nature and beyond. New year here in maldives too have been grey skies but i saw a sunset similar to the picture you’ve shared here so this resonates with me strongly! Pleasure always reading your deep and soulful writes whether haiku or long, sending you light today an always

Gosh, how beautiful and sumptuous this is! I'm truly in awe.. And swooning over the artistic imagery you've created here.. Honestly, I needed to read this today, as, despite of New Year, I've been taken back into gloom. I don't want to feel melancholic anymore and your poem really streaked a golden ray of hope as your words instilled a sense of new beginnings. Thank you so much for sharing this, dear Sara. I need to FAV this, it's purely magical~ sending you so much love & light :)

awww! I am thrilled that my words gave you hope on a gloomy winter day. I know what you mean about not wanting to be melancholic. Seems like I feel that way from time to time...not often...but often enough to understand. I'm grateful you saw fresh new beginnings and appreciate the fave more than I can say. Have a pleasant week ahead, hugs, Sara
