Engulfing Light
I have not been very successful in quieting my mind this evening. I find that as time goes by, I find myself in deeper contemplation, in regards to the purpose of my life. I can say with certainty, that thus far, I have had a life, that with all things considered, has been a well lived one.

I am surrounded by complainers.. it's also cultural :/ Good one!
It’s definitely coming if it hasn’t already! Every year my middle schoolers are more entitled and unmotivated than the year before
love those short little things, they mean a thousand words. Great job ❤
Welcome to the I only do what I want when I want generation.
Rachel's right. We're there. What a pithy observation. Great haiku, D.J.
Is that day not already upon us?
This made me laugh and feel a little sad. That seems to be the way things are heading - have you found that in a professional capacity?
There will come, or There has come?
So much truth to that, oh wise DJ! Loved your Haiku!
Your use of language and wordplay is both entertaining and thought-provoking.... Mostly students ....prioritize complaints and excuses with the far more serious endeavor of writing essays,....highlighting the disconnect between the expectations of educators and the behavior of students. .... fantastic haiku...I liked it so much 😊
