foot taps – – haiku

In the news —

foot taps

waves and smiles

the new handshake

.

extinction . . .

the wisdom of

bowing

.

evolution

we touch only

our phones

.

touching

we share

the invisible

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
