word for the year to be
satisfied with our situation
whether cup overflows or
seems only half full or even
down to dregs in the bottom.
not irritable or restless, soul
holds happiness ever lightly
for it may fly… and now is
how life is meant to be;
the best is yet to come!

Carpe Diem Haiku Kai‘s early summer kigo word is shincha, meaning new tea.
black? chai? or rooibos?
search for favorite cup as
workers pick tea leaves
remember hours of labor
gratitude steeping new brew
