Poem 50 and post 1001


 

Waiting for baby, 
perfect birthing time will come.
Sure as the sunrise.

  1. 1001 posts? That is a lot.
    Perfect is in the eye of the beholder isn't it? In the case your poem illustrates I do wish that the timing was left up to the babe more often than I fear it is...

    1. Yes, there are problems that result from rushing things....
      I have heard it said that we get the birth we need. Its obviously one of those kind of new agey metaphysical ideas and doesn't always stand up but I think it has something to teach us about our attitude. Would we let birth and life unfold more gently if we believed it was what we needed?

  2. I think aiming for 100 haiku type posts would be a very commendable figure but that's just my opinion. And I'm sticking to it. :-)

    1. You're most likely right, Alphie! If I manage 365 it will be the first time I've ever completed a new years resolution so I would like to do that (haiku is easier than exercise)
