wind chimes
early morning darkness
birds sing to my tea
Everyone else is asleep in my house. I’m very fond of these quiet moments. I hope all of you are safe and healthy.
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 Spring Afternoon
sunlight flows downwards
fir trees grasping towards the clouds
a gentle spring breeze
Sidewalk in Black & White
my movement is life
concrete underneath my feet
sunlight through the clouds
Shot the photo while on a walk near home, then edited in Instagram. Original is color, but black and white just felt right.
Views from today’s walk
suburban walking
humor in this time of fear
crows laughing boldly
Serenading Dawn
a bird sings solo
dawn’s hints in the eastern sky
serenading dawn
Nights Sacred Darkness
​
in this night’s darkness
within the sacred silence
seek peace together
The Blue Sky Beckons
the blue sky beckons
one blossom reaches the sky
gravity ignored
This Afternoon’s Walk
More signs of springtime
As I walk in the sunlight
Birds’ discourse above
A Moment Outdoors
a moment outdoors
springtime’s flowers greeting me
with social distance
Spring Moves Forward
spring moving forward
flowers carefree in the sun
bees ignore my gaze
