Sleep
For this weeks haiku prompt (Sleep) at “One Deep Breath”
I am also using these two poems (first a tanka, the other a haiku) for Poetry Thursday
Sleep is where we live
Most of our waking hours
Unencumbered by light
By the work of thought
It’s time to wake up!

If we sleep the sleep
Of the enlightened ones
Is the world still here?

Interesting meditations.
Ron, I hope you feel better soon. You did a wonderful job.
thanks Pearl and Tammy. I realize this is not the best form….speaking about ideas instead of nature, but hey, that’s what came to me and I tend to be the rebel in my so-called ‘later years’ so I just put it out there for whatever it’s worth.
I like your poems very much, especially the second one. Maybe we are in a different world?
Interesting tanka and haiku. Too many people are sleep walkingthrough life.
