PR9: Untitled Haiku Couplet

I wrote this pair of haikus during March of 2012, my second year working in Honduras.  The first word "bulla" is a term our kids used to describe noisy situations.  It somewhat translates to white noise in English.  The word "camino" in line 2 is a reference to the Camino of Santiago, a hike I completed in 2009.  The poems are about finding peace during times of doubt.

bulla continues
peace found in the camino
peaceful heart beating

new self acceptance
not quite balanced but closer
grateful for support
