Tonight’s Haiku: Sitting Upon My Couch
Blog
Sun Stretched Upon The Cold Wind
The sun stretches me
Solar motion elongates
Sun in brutal cold
Walking along the Edmonds Waterfront. With the strong wind from the north, the air was brisk, cold. Bright and sunny later in the day, which made our mid-afternoon walk much more pleasant.
The Rage Engine: A Haiku
Rage’s engine roars
A machine that churns out death
While rotting out souls
Seems this is the favorite piece of equipment to operate anymore.
Fear Has Plenty Of Company
There are many fears
They will never be lonely
I can leave them be
It’s so hard, sometimes, to disentangle from my fears. They are so deeply interwoven into my life. Yet I’ve rooted out many over the years.
May you be freed from fear’s inertia. From its attempts to rob you of joy and wonder.
And may your Sunday recharge and invigorate you.
A Friday Night In The Suburbs
Birds break the silence
No cares for propriety
Suburbia’s charms
I hope your Friday night we lovely. Tis now time for slumber to dominate.
Hope, Trust, and Pushing Through Limits
Your dreams are reachable
Your hopes? Attainable
By pushing through our mind
And barriers unkind
These fake, empty notions
Defeat with trust, motion
In tonight’s haiku, I try to deal with today’s news
Such wretched sadness
Pained hearts and tears aplenty
Cold rain falling now
As I Seek To Simplify
Simplifying life
This quest I’m launching upon
Birds fly in the rain
Seeking Boldness
I seek the boldness
To ask critical questions
Even the hard ones
Still an aspiration. As I thrive in consensus and harmony, this is particularly hard. Pushing into discomfort for the sake of growth will always be challenging.
Laying in the dark: meditatingÂ
I lay in the dark
My eyes feeling drawn downwards
Peace in the silence
