The Looming Karma (Haiku)

Welcome to “Sensational Haiku Wednesday!”

This week’s theme is:  

Karma

there is no escape

according to what you did

thus shall you repay

like a hungry wolf

it tracks you down, haunting you

'til justice is served

so run if you must 

sadly though you won't go far

sins of yore loom near

Thanks to Jenn of You know... that Blog?  

for hosting Sensational Haiku Wednesday.

Next week’s theme: Ego

And speaking of Karma, a psychic friend of mine once told me that the easiest way to earn good karma in this lifetime is through your parents. Treat them well and life will treat you better, she said. 

The Dalai Lama himself has this to say about how to earn good karma points...

The Raging Fire Within

engulfed with passion

 driven by unsated thirst

it's out of control

trembling with desire

the spark that we have started

turned to raging fire

a new beginning

never thought it's possible

romance at its best

longing to hold you

 nay, time was not on our side

sweet brief surrender

Happy Sensational Haiku Wednesday!

Sunlight Oh Sunlight...

"Sunshine, Sunshine
You are sublime, you are divine
Your presence is an extra lifeline"

by Sylvia Chidi

SUNLIGHT

by Kevyn Lettau

I watch the world go by in silence
Deep in the night in silence
Time going by so slow
I think about the morning
And it warns my heart
Because tonight I'm going back to the one I love
And by tomorrow with the dawn I'll be there
And he'll be beside me

Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Bring me the love I'll need to guide me
Shining deep inside of me
Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Show me the way

I look at the stars and I pray for morning
Counting the hours till morning
Thinking about his smile
His sweet smile
I'm standing on the promise of a brand new day
I couldn't face another night staying all alone
I know he needs me just as much as I need him
So, baby, I'm coming home

Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Bring me the love I'll need to guide me
Shining deep inside of me
Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Show me the way
Ooh ohhhhh, yeah

And when I hold him
I won't let him let me go, no no no
No more running far and wide
I'm gonna stay right by his side
He's my laughter, my lover, my life
He's my sunlight

Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Show me the way to a brighter day

Oh, sunlight, oh, sunlight
Bring me the love I'll need to guide me
Shining deep inside of me
Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Show me the way to a brighter day

Oh, sunlight, oh, sunlight
Bring me the love I'll need to guide me
Shining deep inside of me
Sunlight, oh, sunlight
Show me the way...
To a brighter day
Ooohhhhh

A Blogging Award As New Year's Gift

My good friend Thom of Thom's Place 4 Well Whatever gave me this award which I consider as his New Year's gift to me.

Thom has one of the nicest blogs in the bloggosphere and ever since I stumbled upon his site, I got hooked. His humor coupled with the funny images in all those memes always made my day. In fact, he was the one who inspired me to show more of my goofy side at Sheepish Thoughts. Please check out also his fantastic photos in his blog.

And so, with gratitude in my heart, I'd like to give this award to the following bloggers who continue to inspire and entertain a lot of people like Thom:
