Suburban silence
Raindrops rattling my roof
The beauty of home
poetry, prose, and photography
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.
Now in night’s darkness
The air has become silent
Peacefulness reclaimed
It’s now calm as the wrong storm has passed through Seattle. Hope all you Seattle area folks got through relatively unscathed. Sure seems a bit of a mess right now.
Fears can speak loudly
We must learn to not let them
Paralyze our will

Keys pressed in the night
Joyful sounds enchanting me
As a cold wind moves

Still upon the tree
A feast for the passing birds
Nearing autumn’s end
I found the apples on these neglected trees to be haunting, ghost like. Sustaining the birds as the weather turns cruel.

Along the river
My feet move through the sunlight
Serenity speaks

It’s a #rainy night in #Seattle.

A tradition renewed
Every year it is the same
And it’s different

Just out my window
Watching this December rain
I finish my tea
I woke early this morning fighting a migraine. The daggers in my skull have been dulled, but the mental fog and inability to focus remain. The grey, rainy skies seem to fit perfectly with my state of being.
