Sunlight hampered by the smoke

Disrupting autumn

Another smoky, hazy day here in Seattle. The air quality is expected to be slightly better than yesterday. It should continue to get better as the week progresses. I look forward to breathable air.

The bees keep working

Honey bees at work

Through the intense sun

And air choked with smoke moving

The bees keep working

The air in the greater Seattle has been filled with the smoke of many fires. Carried by the wind miles, a gift to be choked, I guess. The bees seem unperturbed.

Seattle Smoke

Smoky skies in Seattle, September 8, 2020

in this morning air
destructive rage blowing west
the sepia sky

The featured image is out my front door, trying to capture the smoky haze that’s descended upon Seattle. My lungs hurt a bit, my eyes sting, and I feel for my asthmatic friends and the misery they’re going through.

How Far Have We Moved?

Moon Haiku

how far have we moved?
the sun across the sky
and the moon so close

Created this image in Adobe Spark with a built in template and image. Loved the photo, and thought this haiku worked nicely with it.
