Ancient Landscape [Tanka]

ancient landscape:
boulders, remnants of mountains,
are strewn about;
prehistoric tribes lived here,
and it looked the same for them.

Summer Sparkle [Haiku]

summer sunlight
sparkles on a blue lake --
always distantly.

Black & Tan [Haiku]

two streams join:
one black and one tan --
the lighter moves on.

Frenetic Idyll [Haiku]

rushing water cuts
through a bucolic scene;
yet, it's still calming.

DAILY PHOTO: The Mysterious Carahunge [Armenia’s Stonehenge]

NOTE: Also referred to as Zorats Karer, this mysterious grouping of rocks in southern Armenia is sometimes called “Armenia’s Stonehenge.” Like Stonehenge, it is a gathering of huge stones whose purpose and rationale of geometric arrangement (circular) is not understood. Also, it’s not known how the stones would have been carried to the site and had nearly perfect circular holes drilled through them. It’s not known whether or not the installation is prehistoric or not, but there are mentions of it from as early as the 13th century.
