Stepping stones



     


stepping stones
one pillar a day,
bridge of salt

~0~0

helping hand
brings the summer sun,
amidst rain

~0~0

your kind words
 waft across the sea,    
warm teapot

    Grace--wonderful! Really like all in the set--choice images include--bridge of salt, and the warm teapot, the sun amidst rain...so, basically everything rocks (including the photo).

    Great haiku, Grace! Like the second. There's always a helping hand against all odds when one is down!

    The first one reminds of the legend of Lord Rama in Indian mythology... an army of monkey soldiers is said to have built a bridge connecting Sri Lanka and India :)

    And the last makes me think of a friendly call amidst a sea of hopelessness.

    Vivid haiku, Grace.

    When I see "pillar" in conjunction with "salt," I can't help but think of Lot's wife.

    How Did This Happen?

    Three nice ones, but the last one is my favourite. For the English, who whenever danger or disaster threatens the only possible solution is to make a pot of tea!
