I ask
the first bee

Inspired by nurturing the environment that embraces us …

#MicroReflection
As spring arrives, I find myself, along with many others, watching as green shoots break through the ground, as leaves’ pale promise begin to unfurl and seeds are sown to provide summertime delicacies.

What if we tended to ourselves as well as we do to our springtime return to the soil?
What if we recognised that how I treat myself, affects the soil next to me?
If we recognised such interconnexion, what might you begin to plant anew?

lone suburban palm tree
so high above anything else
shrugging its fronds

Home - Haiku Diem

Welcome to Haiku Diem, my attempt to write one haiku every day. The exercise is currently paused, after eight years of daily haiku (from mid-2010 to mid-2015 and then from 2022 through 2024), but you can still subscribe to receive daily reposts of the best haiku from those years on on Mastodon, Bluesky, or Facebook,

Endlose Wände.
Schatten an Schatten gereiht.
Kein Licht am Ende.

Walls without ending,
One shadow on another.
Darkness at the end.

Violence's logic
fostered by War's turmoil
preferences Few
at Many's expense
So arise we must
demanding Ancestors' Wisdom
Peace of Our Conscience

Inspired by confronting Turmoil with Tranquillity …
#MicroReflection
Memory shapes peace by teaching us how to respond when harm occurs. When we remember honestly, we name suffering without letting it rule us. Shared remembrance slows blame and opens space for learning. It passes wisdom from one generation to the next, reminding us that restraint, patience, and care have ended conflict before. When memory is held together, not used as a weapon, it grows empathy and responsibility. We learn to choose repair over revenge and dialogue over force. In this way, memory steadies conscience, guides judgement, and helps our communities build a calmer, juster future for across our interconnected lives.
