Familiar mountain,
Waterfalls glistening bright
The drive home is long.
*Note: 'FAMILIAR' is a difficult word to differentiate syllables for. Some will say it with 3 and others will say it with 4. For me, I pronounce it as "fa-mil-yar", so three syllables, and that is how this haiku is intended to be read.

The Silence That Follows
“Silence is not the absence of something but the presence of everything . . . It is the presence of time, undisturbed. It can be felt within the chest. Silence nurtures our nature, our human nature, and lets us know who we are. Left with a more receptive mind and a more attuned ear, we become better listeners not only to nature but to each other. Silence can be carried like embers from a fire. Silence can be found, and silence can find you. Silence can be lost and also recovered. But silence cannot be imagined, although most people think so. To experience the soul-swelling wonder of silence, you must hear it.”― Gordon Hempton
