If we all wage peace
Perhaps sanity will reign
Deny destruction
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.
Seattle’s Smoky Air
The smoke will soon clear
And autumn’s blessing will come
Scrubbing the air clean
A New Day
A new beginning
Intersecting new with old
Moving forward now
A new work week starts. What will you accomplish?
Wild Roses
wild roses
gathered by the child
captured sunlight
Seattle’s Smoky Air
Smoke and haze return
Our murky air unpleasant
Awaiting a good rain
Labor Day: A Haiku
Thanks to those who stood
Refusing to accept things
And speak for justice
This last Sunday
Enjoying this rest
Last Sunday before school starts
And chaos ensues
Welcome to September: A Haiku
This new month begins
One that brings lots of changes
Now it’s September
#Seattle’s Bumbershoot is this weekend
Seattle’s weekend
Music will be the center
Bumbershoot’s glories
One of my region’s iconic events Bumbershoot. An amazing streets and music festival. And, yes, is named after the German word for umbrella. Seattle’s love for irony.
Seasonal Motion
And so I’m falling
Forward into each season
Brewing energy
I find myself anticipating each new season’s arrival. The excitement wears off, though. Fortunately, new things come each change.
Blessings to you all!
