I always feel at your blog--and I can't say that about so many things in life. I stay sane by often being numb. But never here. Beautiful poem, beautiful photo--maximum in a minimalist way.
the stillness of the waters, the image of the water in its haunting stillness, questioning depth, and the way the leaf floats above in perfect silence, yet seems to dance! Breathtaking!
I'm so happy to have found this site. Thanks for the very kind comment you left yesterday on mine. However, I must say it's a bit intimidating to receive a compliment from someone like you. I couldn't begin to produce the the beauty you do! But thanks very much. You're an inspiration! All the best, lucyd
This is another powerful example of the beauty of the Haiku form. Given the day I'm having and the rain falling outside as I type this, these words couldn't have been timed any better.

Poignant poem, beautiful photograph.
oh wow - your words and image are so stirring. so very glad you participated today.
What a striking photograph, particularly the gunmetal grey of the water, which seems to match the thoughtfulness of your haiku. Beautiful post.
Ah,ha. There you go. perfect. Beautiful.
I was hoping you would do a Haiku.

The photograph and the words blend perfectly. Wonderful!
(Sigh) calm waters, a floating leaf and an exquisite haiku - thank you for this, Endment. This blog entry is a wonderful way to start the day!
There it is again ... that invisible hand on my shoulder slowing me down. There is much to ponder here ... think I'll look at it some more. Thanks.
I love these Haiku's I've been reading. This is perfect for the photo. Love the image of being still.

welcome and thanks so much for your kind comment!
evocative.
Haiku seems so simple and yet when I try, it sounds awkward.
But yours is beautiful. Your blogis peaceful therapy for me!
Exquisite.
Endment, this is wonderful... thank you for sharing your thoughts--and the link to haiku!
This is a WOW poem. I have written haiku myself, but your rendition is much much better. :-)
I've come back several times and finally I know what my comment should be to this photo and haiku -
speechless
And I mean that in the best way! Thanks for the new haiku link.

Ahhhhhhhh, such still serenity today. Many thanks.
And, I like it, too.
beautiful and calming - both the words and the image. i'm a fretter - i should spend more time studying the surface of quiet water.
