Born in a muddy place,
Still, I wiggle my way out to
share my innocent grace.
.
Adversity is like air,
It will never disappear,
but, I don’t care.

Poetic Endeavors in a Nutshell
About sexual assault, for victims of sexual assault, by survivors of sexual assault.
Most of us feel it, some don't. Some of us say it, some don't. Some may agree, some won't. Be as it may, the facts still remain.
A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul. (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

Always great to have you with us, Jingle! Love those stunning flowers! So nice 🙂
Hi Jingle ~~ your verses are very truthful. Of course they fit your pretty pictures but life as well.
..
If you are going to write very much haiku you might want to read up about it. You could also read about senryu which has the same form but tells about humanity things instead of the nature and its seasons as does the pure haiku. Wikipedia is a good start and then Google will give your more academic reading. Mine are mostly senryus.
..
Love your haikus jingle. Beautifully done.
a set of exquisite haiku dear, ALL the lovely awards you graced me with have now been posted, thank you for your patience and help finding them, my friend xx
These were so inspiring!!! Too good!!
Sometimes, just a few words can say so much!! I mean, this really was awesome!!!

Born in a muddy place, but I don’t care. That’s what I took from this, Jingle. Very nice. Very encouraging. 🙂
Great photos and haiku! Thank you for sharing!
After just spending a few days gardening, I myself feel like I’ve wriggled out of the mud, not gracefully, but then again, I don’t care 😉 Thanks for sharing!

This a wonderful piece on bugs.
Hi Jingle!
I like the first haiku. It formed images in my head. The second one is nice, too. As one of the bloggers who commented said, “I love the attitude.”
Katherine 🙂
Very nice.
