A Tranquil Existence in Mayhem
Haibun
The sky seems powerless — getting covered by a thick black shade. It shows in the sudden darkness around us. I already see some lit-up dwellings early evening. Huge trees sway because of the energetic wind.
I am pleasantly pleased; I know what is coming
Others are skeptical because of the sudden change. They consider this a disruption. How can nature’s mercy be a disruption? Are they fearing the dark ambiance?
despite all this mayhem, the pleasantness is seeping inside me
despite all this mayhem, I hear the fearless chattering of tiny black birds
Perfect shrills. Captivating melodies in perfect repetitive shrills. I witness a cool drizzle. For me and for the birds, this is an awe-inspiring tranquil existence despite the transience of our existence.
Everchanging gale,
crispen collapsing raindrops,
descending flowers!
