The distant bell sings;
its song peels away the hours:
dream by dream by dream.

Haiku to you, two, Thursday: “Light drips”
The sun flows beyond
the horizon and the day’s
light drips into dreams.
[Editor’s note: In rereading, several times, this haiku, I decided it needed a little tweaking. The tweaking eventually became changing the positions of two words: “flows” and “drips.” Even if you don’t agree with the change, you can see how the repositioning of two words in the poem changes the imagery in it.]
