Since I live among the towering oaks and poplars of the Virginia woods, this haiku resonates with me. The oak continues its contribution though not in its previous majestic role
And so do we continue to do our part in life despite setbacks!
Nice work
Blessings Julia

Hi Jessica!
In Japan, repairing with gold is called Kintsugi.
golden repair"), is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with urushi lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. The method is similar to the maki-e technique.
Your Wabi Sabi poem is excellent. Great job on so few syllables.

I enjoyed reading this and considering its meaning. To me it says even though you have suffered a fall you are still useful.
the fallen oak becomes a bridge, an aid to those wanting to cross the creek. Great art work for your poem. Good luck in the contest.

Can't find any fault here, I am learning all kinds of poetry here, I love the little poems which force us to say much with little. You did this very well. And, I also appreciate the added lessons about poetry. Karen

I commented on this but my Internet keeps going, so I'm trying again. I admire your mastery of the Wabi-sabi form and you brought back memories of my childhood playing by the creek and wooded area, now long gone. Gotta go before the Internet does!

Your poem, picture, and notes combine to deliver an interesting and enlightening presentation. A Wabi-sabi is a new experience for me. However, I like the concept of accepting our own personal imperfections and moving on. Your poem provides the perfect example.

One of my favorite verses in the whole Bible is in Job and it says when he has tried us, we shall come forth as gold. That was the message. It seemed to come from your message for us today and I enjoyed it very much. Patricia .

I like the image and feelings that come from your words. The tree may have fallen, but a bridge is created. When we fall, something unique and wonderful can come from it. Excellent short poem that speaks volumes.
