I expect this might be better classified as senryu, but I’ll let others decide.
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.
Failed Motion: Tonight’s Haiku
Today’s Haiku: February 28, 2020
sparrow’s motion
light, agile upon sunbeams
mountains snore
Wednesday Morning Haiku
time’s motion
irresistible
spring
Two days until my job ends and I begin the next chapter of my life. Mixes sadness and excitement into a strange cocktail.
New Opportunities
life’s changes
new opportunities
cherry blossoms
I saw these blooms at Edmonds Community College today. I am moving forward with my career transition plan. My current position ends Friday, and I’ve grown weary of being let go all the time. So I’m going to study Web Design and Development. This excites me deeply.
Forward, always moving forward.
Wednesday, Early Morning
outside my window
sounds of cat lust, or a fight?
awake before dawn
A haiku from this evening’s walk
moving through darkness
quiet, my old companion
graceful solitude
A Tuesday Morning Haiku
morning darkness
swirls around
memories
One day is done, four more to go as I transition out one career stop into another. Friday’s an ending and a beginning. I’m sad about the ending, but excited about the beginning. I’m opening a new chapter in my life. Blank pages to fill.
Cherry Blossoms
ah, cherry blossoms!
hints that spring is almost here
bold chattering birds
Strange sounds in the night
​
Strange sounds of the night
Is that a cat? A raccoon?
Now, again, silence
