So much symmetry
Balancing shape and colors
Such summer glories
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 Walk In Lynnwood: Tonight’s Haiku
Walking in this park
Amidst these blooms of heather
Preparing for rain
A Haiku At Dusk
Daylight’s glory fades
As the sky’s color changes
Surrounded by friends
Early Morning Haiku
Dawn brings potential
I feel so much clarity
Sky brightens slowly
For many folks, it’s the first day of school. I hope your Wednesday is exceptional. May out be a great school year.
Signs of Summer: this evening’s haiku
Still signs of summer
And the sunlight is quite warm
I saw geese flocking
Good Night!
I wish you goodnight
With darkness descending here
The stars keep shining
The Last Days Of Summer
Now dawn’s arrived
There’s one last day of summer
This carefree robin
The Everett Farmers Market: Today’s Haiku
Under the sunlight
Farmers display their wares
Clouds splicing the sky
I love farmers markets. Two are nearby: Edmonds (Saturdays) and Everett (Sundays). If we miss one, we have the other. It’s a lovely setup.
A Meditation On Love: A Haiku
Love is many things
Over and under rated
Creates joy and pain
A scene from today’s walk
Walking through the rain
WIth summer’s end approaching
This crafted flower
Though it cooler than the past few days, it felt plenty warm to me. Greater Seattle’s mugginess felt fine to me.
