Rhythmic creak
Cradle in attic hibernates~
Wakes up sepia(d) memory.
It is our festival Deepavali today and in a family get together the sight of a swing took me back to some of my childhood memories. Was not sure of posting this one. Have attempted in a not - so - perfect Haiku, if it can be called one.
Thank you Claudia!

ReplyDeletenice...just learned a bit about the background of deepavali and that it is the festival of lights with all the lanterns...very nice.... have fun, celebrating...
ReplyDeletenice..you leave this open to interpret how we will...it could be the empty cradle represents a sadness at what is gone...or it could be a happy memory as well...
