Tranquil Waters

Missing image

 

Along my path runs
The water of life, my soul
Is tranquilly quenched.

    The title just blends so well with the mind....the search for tranquility and peace is what I enjoy about many a haiku. Taking a moment to linger within the line and feel the words settle into thought. Thank you for this pleasure.
