Along the Water

Along the water: a haiku

along the water
under the sun, between trains
beside calm waters

I just finished up winter quarter, so I was able to spend the day as I wished. Today’s the projected last day of sun for a while, so I opted for a waterside walk today. Edmonds is one of my favorite places, so off I went.

Signs of Spring

Signs of spring grow. Blossoms forming on trees, daffodils upright, crocuses tall. Soon the cherry trees will regale us with their yearly show. One all to brief, thus we must take the time to watch.

Spring Approaches

Took this photo on a recent walk. It’s been quite lovely the past few days here in Seattle. Though we still have a few days until spring officially begins, it’s presence is felt. And I’ve seen other signs of spring: trees, especially cherry trees, are starting to blossom. Winter’s grip, around here at least, seems to have weakened, perhaps even released. We can hope, at least.

Underneath Sunlight

Today’s sunlight was very welcome. I’ve been fighting some kind of “bug” since Tuesday night. The worst was Wednesday, but I’m still lacking energy. I was able to get a walk in this after, and get plenty of school stuff done, but I’m now wiped out. I expect to be near 100% by tomorrow, though.

A Good Morning Haiku

I hope your Tuesday brings you closer to your goals.
