Eyelids drooping down
My weariness at day’s end
Preparing for bed
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.
Tonight
Darkness comforts me
Slumber’s demands overwhelm
Sleep now command me
Exploring Home
I seek out beauty
The glories of Washington
My ancestors speak
These children grow tall
Look at these children
So tall, kind and wonderful
I’m filled with rich pride
A Monday Morning Haiku
This new week starting
So very many options
Soon, the mountains glow
It’s Monday, go make something great
A Seattle Morning Haiku
Seattle’s grey skies
Though they filter the sunlight
Bring me peacefulness
Simplicity: The Beauty of Haiku
Life is so complex
The beauty within haiku
Ah! Simplicity!
A Good Night Haiku
This evening creeps past
My body is now weary
Listening to the wind
I’m fighting some beastly bug. Tis time to let sleep have a go at it.
CompassionÂ
There is no such thing
As too much compassion
Sunlight calls to me
Tonight’s Haiku: Life’s Complexities
Life’s complexities
Tranquility’s opposite
Argued with moonlight
