Window Blinds Morning

Carpe Diem #621, first light.

Inspired by …

morning light
a couple on the cliff
as spirits of a new day       © Jane Reichhold

winter morning
the fragile light of the sun
reflects in the snow     © Chèvrefeuille

I write my haiku about”first light”…

Window blinds morning
reveals lightning of first rays
snowflakes dancing waltz.

Knocking Rationality #haiku #tanka

Daily Prompt: Gut Feeling.
When’s the last time you followed your instinct despite not being sure it was the right thing to do? Did it end up being the right call?

Choose and vote the right
when not knowing what that is
instinct qualifies

good enough make decisions
knocking rationality
