dawn's grace arising dancing across the petals while the crows calling
Here’s my contribution to today’s Word of the Day challenge. Today’s word is “early”. Early speaks to me of dawn, of new beginnings, of opportunities.
Early: A Haiku
Category: Daily Haiku
I adore the simplicity, as well as the challenge of Haiku. The constraints focus my mind, seeking out the essence of the moment, feeling, notion, distilling it to brilliant singularity.
My goal: to post at least one haiku a day.
Autumn Smoke
through the autumn smoke
memories of cool fall air
and longing for rain
Autumn Flowers
walking in sunlight
warmth remains in autumn's air
the rains will soon come
Autumn Rose
sunlight drifting
downwards upon my skin
yet the leaves redden
Afternoon Walk
the joys of sunlight
graceful clouds within blueness
seagulls cry calming
An Afternoon Pause
an afternoon pause
in sunlight along the shore
the joy of flowers
reddening leaves
boldly green just yesterday
crisp, cold air arrives
An Autumn Flower
yet another walk
underneath the autumn clouds
soon birds quiet
Autumn Nights
this autumnal night
with silence under the stars
sleep's call beckons
Sunlight and Clouds
sunlight and the clouds
graceful movement through the sky
autumnal graces
