I pose a toast to you all... as we pass through the squeaking gates_! ;<)


on icy paths
we close these rusted gates...
tomorrows' call

... close the gate.
__Walking forward; by not allowing that on the far side of the Gate to control your Gait, each step is new.

__Lorraine and Kelly, I thank you both... your konstant kindnesses. _m

Each step taken is the chance for a new beginning - let yesterday's mistakes remain in the past...love this haiku Doug, and where its thoughts take me.

Icy paths, and rusted gates are in good juxtaposotion to tomorrows' call.
This ku is opening wide. Well done.

Best wishes for 2011
