Haibun: The Bigger Picture

a black whippet striding through a forest in dappled light

In this forest, our heart is our compass. We follow the trail of fallen leaves, the dappled light between trees. The ground rises, we climb with moss. The rich smell of soil and mushrooms rises further still.

Haibun: A New Adventure

Cairngorms National Park

two whippets in winter jackets and snoods sniffing the ground on a mountain trail

Climbing the trail we sense the presence of mountain hare, footprints from walkers who look for adventure. Away from houses and roads, autumn brings her own perfume. Visitors old and new gaze at the views. Higher up where clouds end, the light is shining through.
