On eastern windows
morning light works its magic—
a curtain flutters.

    Love the magic of the morning light ~

    Have you thought of making a haiku set in one posting? It would make it easier to comment all at once instead of going to another page. Just a suggestion as you normally have more than one.

      Grace,

      I appreciate your suggestion. However, I’m not sure it will work for me, since I usually–well, always!–couple one specific photo with one specific haiku or another type of poem. I visit blogs that have many photographs in one post (you know, like 10 or 12 of them in a row?), and I have to scroll down seemingly forever to comment, which I find quite annoying. I do my best not to annoy the majority of my readers. I know, I know: I still annoy SOME of them! But I try to keep the annoyances to a minimum! 🙂

      Thanks for visiting!

    The rich terra-cotta color of the wall is the perfect canvas for the shadow. The clear blue sky is the perfect finish.

    We all love the brilliance of a sparkling new day. However, there may be too much of a good thing as the sun invades our space a bit too strongly. Thus the curtain is a fine compromise between searing and merely brilliant…

    That’s a great shot MMT. Semms like you have an endless supply of the streets of Zacatecas. This one is a colorful building.

    The flowers around the lamppost are intriguing… and its shadow on the warm orange wall is terrific. Your haiku is spot on.
