Haiku 81

flowers
beginning to bloom
completion

springtime
hat thrown in air
graduate

time
ticking of clock
fifty years

pictures
album open
past memories

the road
well traveled
worn path

Haiku of a lifetime, Phyllis. I like the progressive steps taken from early years to the present. I am sure you have many lovely memories to fall on to when you sit in quiet, pensive mood:) Warm regards & Hugs // paul
