poetry, prose, and photography
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.
Remnants of the snow
Outside this early morning
More of the grass seen
The past few weeks have had me dealing with a brutal cold, which progressed into a sinus infection So I didn’t get much in the way of photos during Seattle’s snow storm, and I love photos of the snow. But I got thisne, which is something.
This early morning
Branches burdened with coldness
Hints of the day’s light
over snow
street light dark
calming quiet
morning silence
tranquility sings
exhaling clouds
ache of the cold wind
clouds moving with great speed
a seagull’s poem
under the fir trees
eyes closed, awaiting the dawn
gently falling rain
a new day begins
possibilities abound
the pre-dawn silence
Seattle’s rain falls
grey skies with shades of rich blue
perhaps we’ll see snow
barren branches move
wind, graceful power’s song
I still hear your voice
​walking in the rain
moss covered stones by the brook
such calm memories
I just discovered a new writing prompt series created by Ronovan Writes. I love the concept and look forward to exploring the community further.
This haiku responds to this prompt: Ronovan Writes #Weekly #Haiku #Poetry Prompt #Challenge #287 Brook&Moss, which seems like a perfect prompt for a Seattleite.
