Wisdom's Gate

Knowing he knows not,
the old man leaps, clicks his heels.
His child touches ground.

Thanks Nette..still learning haiku;learning you don't have to conform to the 575 rule..such a relief. The best haikus I have read have not. Yet to see the beauty in conformity..it's there..skirting round the edges of my mind..but I am yet to embrace it fully.
