Wonder wraps my soul
awe evanesces to warmth
How blessed we should feel...

Merriam Webster - Word of the day: Tranche refers to a division or portion of a whole. World Contact Day is commemorated every year on March 15. It is a unique observance held globally to focus on communicating with extraterrestrial life and exploring the possibility that intelligent beings may exist beyond Earth. World Contact Day inspires people to invoke their curiosity and spend time thinking about the universe and the mysteries surrounding it. What is the “Ides of March”? According to the Roman calendar, the Ides are a monthly occurrence. In March and other months with 31 days, the Ides always falls on the 15th; it falls on the 13th in months with 30 days. The Ides traditionally marked the arrival of the new Moon and was cause for celebration. The word “Ides” is derived from Latin, meaning “to divide.” Mothering Sunday in 2026 falls on Sunday, March 15. Mothering Sunday, celebrated in the United Kingdom and Ireland, occurs on the fourth Sunday of Lent, which is exactly three weeks before Easter. Unlike the fixed-date Mother's Day in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia, Mothering Sunday’s date changes each year according to the Christian liturgical calendar. On March 15, 2026, several notable observances and events are celebrated: Dumbstruck Day: A day to express frustration. Everything You Think is Wrong Day: A day to challenge and celebrate wrong beliefs. International Day Against Police Brutality: A day to raise awareness and advocate against police violence.

nice gratitude for the weather
✒️Rain, thunderstorms, and wind are among my favorite memories. They - the elements and memories - are my warm blankets. Your haiku is lovely. Post-Midnight Musings: 2026 is a few moons away, and despite the dystopian traumas of 2025, the collective voices of love and "in enemies' faces" righteous anger give me hope. Added to global awakenings are a few personal wins that bring me Grace. Loved ones are alive and thriving. FYI: New personal and career responsibilities are coming my way in the new year. I look forward to them; however, I will have less opportunities to check on your growing literary works. Though you may not see my encouragement on Vocal, please remember that I remain proud of you ... and BeggleDert has grown. It's like a living thing. When I finally self-publish, I hope to get that news to you with a quickness. Bye for now, Lady Novel. ✒️🩵💫✒️
So beautifully written. Loved it!
Such an achingly lovely expression of gratitude. Genuinely wonderful haiku, Novel! :)
