Haiku from Hawaii 5

ON SWIMMING (CAGED) NEAR ONE DOZEN OR SO GALAPAGOS SHARKS:

Ancient wonders still
draw the self out of the self,
slowly changing minds.

  1. Holy *&^% you swam (caged) with sharks? That is awesome! I would love to do that someday! I want a longer post about this experience.

    By the way, I'm really enjoying your haikus, even though I'm generally keeping to my usual silence about your entries.

  2. Thanks, Candy! It's great writing them, too. We'll see if a longer post comes out about today's adventures, but essentially, we were given snorkels and masks, dropped into the ocean in a cage, and surrounded by about a dozen 8-12 foot Galapagos sharks! Fun times for sure.
