in this sunlit field
petals gracefully reaching
towards the birdsong
A mountain flower 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.
A Summer Rose
within the sunlight graced by cooler air a gentler mood
Early Morning
early morning
awaiting dawn's grace
time for some tea
Summer’s Blessings
summer's moving across the sunlit sky blessings of flowers
Memories
memories of night-lights
fearfully trembling
in the darkness

Summer Lilies
gigantic lilies
at the edge of the sidewalk
bathing in sunlight
Bee upon the petals
upon these petals
this bee feasts upon nectar
then, on to the next
Flower in Sunlight
within the sunlight
moving in the summer breeze
the scent of salt air
walking near the shore
with sunlight guiding my steps
these moments of grace
Roses in the Rain
roses in the rain
lives lived underneath grey skies
between sunny days
