Rest Haiku 943-946

My foot catches on
before the rest of me does
so I trip and fall

Yes, there was the rest
and there was a creation
of Shabbat itself

We each need to pause
to cease our work or movement
to rest and relax

Can we ever rest
with mountains behind mountains
that need to be climbed?

  2. I enjoyed your haiku chain. I especially liked the word pictures that the first and last haiku's placed in my mind. :-) Yes a Sabbath/Shabbat rest is so very important for mind, body, and soul.
