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.

As I look skyward

The memories fill my mind

Seattle’s autumns

Leaves in the darkness
As the trees prepare to sleep
Stars peeking through clouds

Today definitely felt like autumn. Wearing sweaters, finding my gloves and scarves, all signs the fall is here. For me, it’s a happy feeling. What about you?

Devouring Rage

We devour rage

And it seeps into our bones

One tweet at a time 

A meditation on modern culture. Am I off base? What do you think?

Walking at Twilight

Walking at twilight
The sense of forward motion
My tranquility

I value my evening walks. They bring me focus and settle down my more manic moments. Often, I listen to podcasts. Today, though, I opted for music. Spotify is glorious if you love music like I do.

Well, today’s autumn. So I brought iut a photo from one of my walks last week. The weather was much nicer.

I hope your fall is fantastic.
