Run-ku

chill autumnal brume--
steam lifts from leaves and grass,
under cover of dawn
Often while running I'll repeat one or two familiar "mantras" to assist in maintaining my pace and focus. Frequently I'll also work through haiku in my head, counting syllable and considering the environment around me. Often the words and mood dissipate by the time I make it to my keyboard or notepad to record the words. Sometimes, I record them and they fail to capture the moment, but truth is the moment itself has also passed.

Stay Poetic!
