PROMPT: Self-Care

Daily writing prompt
How do you practice self-care?

1.) Move my body often and with vigor. 2.) Eat my veggies. 3.) Rest as though it’s an essential part of the process of living (i.e. not as though it’s goofing off between “doing stuff.”) 4.) Drop anything without value, making personal development as much a process of stripping away as it is of adding to.

Vegetive Ambiguity [Haiku]

barren trees say Fall,
 but the verdant undergrowth
  says Spring.

Statuesque [Haiku]

an egret stands:
 still of body,
  but not of eye.

Water Lilies [Haiku]

packed as Giverny,
water lilies overtake
a sprawling pond.

Spring Rains [Haiku]

lush tall grass
 waves in the breeze, preceding
  the day's spring rains

Eucalyptus [Haiku]

eucalyptus trees,
trunks raw and naked,
shade the park lane.

Trickle Tickle [Haiku]

clouds scrape hill.
 will rain be tickled out
  as clouds pass over?
