Photo, New Zealand by Marie-Claire Holmes
This haiku was inspired by Jessie's move this week to a new house and town and Kay's journey from Singapore to London. Bonne chance et bonne courage, mes amis!
New horizons mean
more challenges unfolding;
adventures welcome.
the photo and poem are perfect together. I agree that it is a mission statement for life. thx.

That haiku is DEFINATELY going to be hung on the fridge in our new home (or maybe the espresso machine!)...somewhere that I'll see it every day and be reminded both of you and what an incredible adventure this thing called "life" really is!
Thank you my friend.

I like your haiku so much that I think I will adopt it as my personal Mission Statement...as soon as my current "challenge" is finally completed!
(I especially like the last line!)
