puddles
even the trees
dive in
In honor of e.e. cummings from whom I borrowed the title, I have to forego the capitals in the heading. Really haiku have no need for the big whigs!
I'm trying to practice the Japanese concept of karumi "observing simple things closely."
But think of all that is involved in a simple puddle:: the whole condensation/cloud/rain cycle. The physics of gravity and water pooling, the optics of reflection.
Instead I'll just watch Mr. Darcy slide and scurry through them, splashing last night's rain over the grass and bushes in his sheer joy of water-play.
