Connie Culp's story challenges my whole idea of identity. Where do I, as an individual, place my value? I feel I am due for a change. Don't know exactly what, just that something is brewing inside of me.
Change
A single drop of water
Falling steadily upon a rock.
PinkPurl is hosting a Haiku blog festival. I wrote the above haiku in January 2004. Hop over to her blog to view more haiku by participants.

Wonderful imagery and feeling in your poem, Juana! And tied in with your photo, which very much suggest "what step next" your presentation creates a very evocative experience. Change in the air...Change can be a good thing. I hope you find the direction that sings in harmony with your spirit. Let us know how the journey goes...Thanks so much for joining in on the haiku fun. Many want to see the festival return again. :o) Happy Day!
Tracy you are so sweet with your comment! Thank you for your gracious words and for hosting this haiku fest!
Very thought provoking post.
A powerful haiku. Change does come like that, slowly and surely.
I love this Haiku-it is powerful as Shell says. It makes me think in the long term and with patience, I love it!
So on point about change. I love this. I appreciate this.

Thank you for the visit.
beautiful poem... you ask powerful questions here... it takes great courage to step into change, to step into life...
Wow! I had to think about that haiku for a moment (it's getting late!) but it's wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
That next step, is sometimes the hardest. Yet once we move that foot. It is amazing the change that can come into our being.
Thank you for this.

one of the best thought provoking statements I've heard in a long time...I'm posting a link to it in my blog & facebook. Thank you very much for sharing your eloquent words.
Thank you everyone for stopping by. It amazes me how so few words can communicate so much. I have enjoyed reading your haiku!
Bravo! This is exactly the type of haiku I wish I could write! I love it, and the accompanying image is great too!
Your haiku reminds me that there's a common theme across so many blogs about change this year. I can very much envision what you are writing about!
Faith & change often go hand in hand :)
