Also Wordless Wednesday links. HAIKU I mackerel sky now warning sailors, storm a comin fortitude alert. II life sends, dark clouds demands fortitude to weather storms bringing sunshine soon. III walk tall, stand strong, be carefree and let the struggles flow free with the time. You might also want to view Wordless Wednesday at Dave' Life Aquarian and In Him We Believe...

ReplyDeleteWonderful poetry that perfectly complements your sunset photo! Thanks for the visit to my Watery Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the haiku and a lovely sky in the pic.
ReplyDeletepretty mackerel sky :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the photo caption and sky view, especially the word fortitude. The sound of it is so comforting to press on!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a charming place to live. And I hope that this is your view every day. Do you try to photograph this scene often? A "mackeral" sky sounds like something fisher people would say fondly.
ReplyDeleteLoved your Haiku's Carol
