May Day!

Happy May Day to all the workers of the world! And Happy May Day to everyone who wrote during National Poetry Writing Month. Big shout out to Maureen the founder of the feast over at napowrimo.net, celebrating twenty years of making poetry happen in April. What a wonderful month of encouragement and inspiration and resources she provides. Rest now until next year!

clouds cannot bear it
clasping themselves as they fly
iron weight of rain

There’s always a chance a haiku will pop up still but this painting was inspired by the drippy, blowy, dark clouds I saw on the way home today. It was not raining but the sun was only hitting parts of the hills.
