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.

This evening’s walk

Went walking today

Along my favorite shoreline

As the sun moved low

One of my favorite things is to walk along the waterfront in Edmonds, WA. Tonight I include a few photos I took along the way.

This Morning’s Rain: A Haiku

Early morning rain
Disrupting outdoor planning
Well, we’re flexible

Awoke to the steady patter of a Seattle rain. For me, there’s something very calming about it. I guess it’s part of Seattle being home. There must be moss in my soul.

This grey morning light 

Falls deftly through morning sky 

Clouds from the ocean 

A wee spot of melancholy in today’s daily haiku
