a new day begins
possibilities abound
the pre-dawn silence
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.
January 8, 2019: Haiku
Seattle’s rain falls
grey skies with shades of rich blue
perhaps we’ll see snow
Haiku, January 8, 2020
barren branches move
wind, graceful power’s song
I still hear your voice
Walking In The Rain
​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.
This morning’s #haiku: awaiting dawn
awaiting dawn
light’s grace upon the dark clouds
rain’s song to the trees
Dawn may come earlier, but it’s still dark before I leave for work, still dark on many drive home. This, at times, challenges many mood. I work to stay cognizant of my minds health.
Tide Against Sand
tide moves against sand
with air dancing upon waves
heron’s patient stealth
The Solstice is Past
with the solstice past
daylight stays with us longer
spring whispering now?
Dawn Waits To Be Born
the sky’s in labor
as dawn awaits to be born
the sky whispers “push”
Tonight’s Haiku
A Haiku Near A Bookstore
within this metal
this writer’s soul delighted
festive tinsel’s song
