One Deep Breath: Fibonnaci + haiku = fibs

Slow
path,
hidden
among trees.
Walk home in silence,
mind calmed by nature’s gentle hand.

Apparently fibs are a new form of haiku inspired by the Fibonacci sequence, with two rules: the sequence of syllables is 1/1/2/3/5/8, and no one-syllable lines can contain an article. On a day when I face a week of corporate writing, these little beauties have set my brain on fire: why can’t I spend the day composing fibs? As I’m already feeling fed up with this ‘real’ work, I’m going to post a fib (a faiku?) every day this week, oiling the writing muscle ready to start next week’s book writing stint with enthusiasm and, ahem, verve…

One
day
I will
remember
how to love again;
a bruised heart heals slower than bone.
