A haibun for DVerse’s Haibun Monday (it’s been a while!), also inspired by MVB: Packages.
It’s not about what might come in little packages around birthdays or Christmas, not about what others might give me, nor even what I am glad to be able to give to them. I am happy for that moment when the whatever-it-is arrives on my doorstep, for that bit of excitement.
Each day is like a little, wrapped-up package. Some are heavier than others, with much sadness or difficulty, yet each also has lovely aspects added. Right?
no dancing in wind
skeleton tree raises arms —
see fiery leaves!

Ha! A refreshingly positive haibun. I liked that style with the question, and the positive tone, very well done.

these lines are wise: Each day is like a little, wrapped-up package. Some are heavier than others,
and your haiku ended with such delight

Jenna, I think you really captured the concept of conscious appreciation. That’s something that doesn’t come easily to many people, myself included…
