About Me
- gabrielle
- I live in South Minneapolis with Chris, Emma and Sauvi. We make good trouble together. I am committed to living in such a way as to engender peace and social justice, ecology and sustainability, and cultural, spiritual and artistic expression and exchange. I am interested in dialogue about the core of the human experience.

Very cool! Thanks for participating in Haiku Bones.
Thanks, Nancy. Here I was imaging how sweet the air smells after a summer storm. The same is true for poetry. A few well chosen words can soften the hardest heart.
This is nice, Gabielle. Are you an Issa fan. I have not read any of his haiku.

I have done both prompts again this week as you did.

Are you invoking a particular Issa haiku? Shall I go find it? I like how you started with a command, bringing your reader to an immediate alertness. Thank you for this.

Thank you, Jim. I’ve enjoyed your entries on both sites. As a relative newcomer to haiku form, I am drawn to reading some of the traditional masters. I love how a delicate brushstroke of seasons and senses can evoke a trembling just below the surface.
Hi, tasmith. Thank you for your interest! I am glad to hear the first line was effective. I like Issa for his vulnerability, personal reflection and gentle humor. There are two poems whose imagery and sensibility inspired "Light without body".
The moon and the flowers,
forty-nine years,
walking around, wasting time.
Crescent moon--
bent to the shape
of the cold.
liked this haiku and the origami poem too!
