Setting the Mood for a Writing Experience

 
        I think I may have a little writers block where my haiku is concerned,  and have come to believe that writing haiku is more difficult than I at first thought.  I did real well, at first, I think it may have been that it was summer.  That is my favorite season, I love summer, and I was looking forward to a weekend vacation in the Texas Hill Country.  As well, I had spent some time on the beach, soaking in the air and enjoying the whole infinity of the sea. It had been awhile since I had been to the beach for more than a Spring Break beer, and for some reason this summer the beach was different for me.  Oh yes, now I remember, I was thinking of moving, for work reasons, to a suburb of Dallas, and leaving the beaches of Corpus Christi.  Therefore, the beaches sparked nostalgic memories of my childhood and life more this summer more than other summers.  Being close to nature and enjoying my time at the beach and later at the hill country enabled me to write some decent Haiku.  That is not going to stop me from posting to my haiku  blog, just change the theme of it some.  I guess it just proves that your environment does effect your writing, as for me I think I may plan a trip, maybe that will clear my mind a little.
