Haiku My Heart ~ New Moon
MAY 6, 2016
**New moon in Taurus,**
**yesterday was your birth day...**
**all things start anew...**
**yesterday was your birth day...**
**all things start anew...**

Yesterday...
was my late husband's birth day
and this bull mask was a birthday gift to him many years ago
and comes from the Bamilike Tribe, in Cameroon, Africa.

I think this bull has the perfect smile
for this new moon in Taurus
and remembering Milton...
and how I am realizing that so many things are new
and have changed for me in all directions...
I have no idea how I would be able to explain,
even if I could...
for this new moon in Taurus

and have changed for me in all directions...
I have no idea how I would be able to explain,
even if I could...
I think this mask would be able to fill him in
quite a bit better than I ever could...
I included some sweet peas from my garden
to sweeten the message.

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
