Glowing lamp..

Image-Glowing lamp, By Admin

Scattered books
Zillion good luck notes
Hidden mails

Goodbye hugs
Emotional heart
Set on fire

Set on fire
Lamp is bound to glow
Rest I lock


We move on. Or rather life moves on. Graduation time is a crucial point as world thinks that we are capable of delivering wonders. Dreams gone, goals ahead. Celebrate that it happened. Lock the treasures!

This Haiku is written for Haiku Heights and Haiku My Heart. The prompt for this week is Lock.

    It takes me back to the valedictory function in high school.. the emotions felt much more real than in college.. Good luck to you to find your goals and achievements ahead and reach them.

    I like the Haiku and the remembrance of graduates this time of year, but the title of this blog and your idea that there are sermons in stones speaks to my soul. Stones and rocks are our Grandmothers and Grandfathers. They have been around through all time and have seen everything that mankind has done. They hold all the wisdom. How can we not learn from them? I listen to their sermons and teachings. I carry them with me and offer a lift from here to there at times via my pocket. I like the way this blog allowed me to think today. Thanks.

    Peace

    your set required 2 readings for me, to get to my meaning....your writing is deeper in thought than I am used to, I guess...I love the very last line - 'rest I lock' - well-done

    I have long worked in K-12 education and graduation is a true archetype of all that lies ahead--and letting go of what was. Love your words.
