Fractures of beauty

hidden in the moss and mist.

Phantoms revealed.

This haiku was inspired by the Inktober prompt ‘crystal’. I was invited to participate by JS Adam, editor of the new publication Art Tales.

It’s also inspired by my Forest Crystals, found on Vancouver Island by a couple of tree planters. I’ve had one of the crystals set in sterling silver by Walker Designs, a silversmith I know. The other one is awaiting inspiration.
