Monday’s pain now past
The other days have blurred by
Now Friday is here
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 monsoon-like rain squall
In the morning dark
Intense rain’s forceful pounding
Rattling gutters
I awoke this morning to an intense downpour. More like the Philippines or Florida than Seattle.
Evening Lightening
Flickering briefly
Lightning burns across the sky
Jagged movements blur
Updated: spell check got me, changing “lightning” to “lightening”
Strangeness surrounds us
Strangeness surrounds us
So much unbelievable
Such a crazy life
Busyness
Mindless reaction
Chasing after to-dos
Lost within motion
Zen Mediation
As the mind quiets
The sound of nothing roaring
Emptiness fills me
Thinking about Sanity
Confusion masses
Up against the edge of mind
Sanity a mess
Cherry Blossoms
Hanafubuki
Cherry blossom snow falling
This gentle spring breeze
Creation’s Firey Song
Within us echoes
Of creation’s firey song
Spring’s ruminations
Oh Technology: A Haiku
To the new we switch
Oh, then a technology glitch
For the past we’ll itch
