So, where is
San
Francisco's Haiku
Pond
anyway? The mysterious
Haiku
Pond is more commonly known as Metson
Lake.
It is a quiet place, out of the way, picturesque,
and inspiring. The map shows you where it is in
Golden Gate Park, just off Middle Drive West
between two sets of car barriers, so, seekers of
bliss, who wish to come and visit for a quick
little moment of eternity, have to leave their cars
for a bit of a walk.
Hello everyone, to all the tourists, visitors, the
artists, and the heartfelt souls happening across this
brief note.
Yes, San Francisco has a Haiku Pond, it is famously
not famous and all to nondescript for all that, please
enjoy the photos, the few links and, when you have a
chance, come on by and enjoy the subtle peace and quiet
that I have come to enjoy there.
There are some photos of the place, a map for clarifying
its location and then a few haiku written at the
scene.
.........Enjoy,

Along the
roadway
Meeting million year olds
For the first time ...
After
winter storms
Trees fallen by the wayside
Old friends come to
mind
Exact
reflections
Still - water fascinates
As time ... goes by
The munching - right here
On and on - and yet - yet
The leaves - motionless
