Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Haiku: August, 25, 2024

after the rainfall 
sunlight moves from behind clouds 
summer reaches far

grace consumes the night
within this silent darkness
healing commences

evening light descends 
boisterous colors emerge 
glory of flowers

in the early morn
long before the birds arise 
listening for grace

as the daylight fades
the dahlia glows in the sunlight
bringing the bees joy

quiet summer's walk
I lift my gaze to the sky
and feel life's wonder

beads upon petals 
ghosts of the recent rainfall 
then sunlight returns

Saw this flower while walking around town recently. I loved it and wanted to share.

I hope and well with all of you.

gentle honeybee
dancing upon the petals
moments of summer

Saw this flower with the honey bee on my way out to my car. One of the great joys of summer.

gazing to the west
sunlight stretching through the rose
I'm cooled by the breeze

with the sun setting
light moves from the western peaks
across these petals
