Erasing footprints
Blank sand left on wailing shore
Waves teach a fresh start
Every wave comes along the shore every second erasing every little sign of what was there earlier. No it doesn't forget, but it clears. It tells us it's not possible to easily forget and move on.. but it's possible to begin afresh, have a new beginning.. a new start. It's possible to begin with a clean slate at any moment we choose to. Like the waves, every second our thought waves will give us a clear mind, provided we want it! So learn from the waves to make a new beginning.
This Haiku is written for The Heights of Haiku - April 2012. The word for today was 'WAVES'.
