Today’s Haiku: November 8, 2024

poetry, prose, and photography


It’s a rather drippy day here in greater Seattle, which I’m rather fond of. I find them tranquil and rejuvenating, especially with some coffee and a good book.
May your day feed your soul.


the abyssโ edge
I finally stare within
seeing myself stare back

the newest of nights
moon rises above the trees
fresh ink upon my page
This came to me as I was winding down for bed last night.
I hope each of you has a wonderful week.


with forests ablaze
reddened skies through tall firs
the birds go silent

at the dayโs ending
sunlight fades into the sea
gentle grace of night

with dusk descending
and gently fading sunlight
flowers get their fill

with my morning tea
the gentlest of breezes
sunlight through the clouds
I love calm mornings. Today, Seattle’s weather seems to be pivoting from rain to partially cloudy. Blue skies punctuated with white clouds. Summer’s heat abated, whether temporarily or for the rest of the year is uncertain, but I’ll take the respite.
