Odd-defying stance
bravery amidst peril
courage floats upright
Intrepidity
holds fast and endures it all
face of fortitude

Beautiful lines. Liles are my all time fav.
I used to write haiku’s for fun … I haven’t been able to do that.
Nice lily plants in the lake.
What lake….? *grin*
Such a beautiful scenery.My Watery entry
Hey, I loved it! Thanks for sharing this mam. Keep it up!
Oh such a pretty little cottage!Joyce M
Oh you saw something else 😉
Ooooh! haiku! I miss making those. love your prose. 😉
the first haiku is inspiring =)
It’s been a long time since I’ve read haiku as most people today no longer bother with ancient tradition. :)And yes Hazel, I do restore books that are damaged or are falling apart due to old age. 🙂
A peaceful site it is. =)
Water lilies!! :)I used to join memes like this one.. Watery Wednesday. parang gusto kong sumali ulit. 🙂
The action of the water spout into the pond is a great idea and wonderful perspective.My Wednesday Post is: BOB HALL PIER on North Padre Island
nice photography and poem! good job.
Niice photos! =)
Take that as a virtue.
great poem.. simple but meaningful
Beautiful pics, and lovely haiku. I like “courage floats upright”. Well done!
love the lily pads, they are so fascinating! great job!
Great words for excellent pics.
I’m thinking that courage gets turned upside down at times as well…Three Takes on Fortitude
Wonderful word images for fortitude haiku ~namaste, carol (A Creative Harbor) linked w/Haiku SensationalGreat photos for Watery Wed ^_^
Peace is all I can think about this poem. Haiku never failed to amaze me
Bravery amidst peril, that’s what I need. Something to ponder on when trouble comes. *) Love the header.
Great poem – love the picture
Beautiful! Jeanni
Wow, Hazel, your poetry is beautiful! 😀
Haiku. I’ve been doing this as our class activity in elem and HS. Great poem!
Wow Haiku! Its very seldom I see Haiku posts online these days. ^_^
Good photos and poem.
Love the visuals… fortitude in nature… beautiful yet resilient lily… great take on the prompt!!
I imagine young frogs just learning to jump from one lily pad to another — a frightening idea to such a youngster — until their courage and confidence kicks in with “I can do it!” ~~ just how my mind is working at the moment! 🙂
lovely haikusenryu of lost soldiers
pretty pictures of the pond sis. love those water lily pics. 🙂
