Still thinking of a title for this one, maybe “Ocean Lure.”

It’s been quite awhile and it took some unblocking to get here, but I’m pleased with this new haiku!

“Return,” a beach finding and reflection
I found this softened piece of glass bottle on the beach this week. All that’s legible is the word “RETURN.” At a time when I need to do just that – return to myself, this finding couldn’t have been more appropriate. (A message from the Universe, no doubt.) I’ve been meditating on what “return” means to me the last few days. The haiku “From Within” is my first reflection (reposting below). I’m happily using this experience as a way to get back into writing. 
Meditation 1: 
Thank you.

Haiku for a New Year
I just can’t seem to write down all of the thoughts and emotions swirling around me right now. . .
The New Year is upon us and with that, here is something I will keep working on.
New haiku
It has been awhile since I’ve written. There is no doubt I am rusty, but that is okay. Everything has a cycle. It is all a process. Patience, gentleness and gratitude certainly help!
Here is my latest haiku:
“Sun Will Rise” a tribute haiku
As with so many people, the death of Robin Williams has jarred me. Being in the level of darkness he must have felt, greatly saddens me. It’s a place I feel deserves no harsh judgement. Pain is pain and with that pain, compassion is needed.
I am grateful for his life and for the light he bestowed on the world.
Thinking of Robin Williams; of the darkest of depressions; of the ability to make others laugh; and of the light, clarity and Springtime that the actual red robin symbolizes, I feel compelled to share this haiku.
Many thanks,
Elizabeth Lorayne
