darkness descending
covering faded blossoms
so ephemeral

wonders of springtime
flowers within the sunlight
birdsong fills the air
Tonight’s Haiku: April 24, 2025
with hints of purple
flowers changing through the spring
new wonders each day
A Morning Haiku
cherry blossoms fall
as spring's skies begin to warm
free of all our fears
Tonight’s Haiku
sunlight descending
brightening western mountains
quiet witnesses
Tonight’s Haiku
another spring day
cherry blossoms scattering
fading memories
Wrote this one early this morning. Created this image in Canva.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
Early morning haiku
sleep’s evasive
the early morning darkness
hiding raindrops
Yeah, I should be asleep,
I’d prefer to be asleep
Yet that is not
My reality.
Starting the day
awakened by self-doubt
criticizing all I've done
so I face within
resisting these words
embracing all that I am
keep moving forward
A morning meditation for you, my friends
I have plenty of moments when I don’t trust my gut. When my heart screams out, but I don’t believe that it can be right. I’m working on that, though.
I deeply value the arts, and have encouraged many to pursue that path. Even when it’s likely they’ll not attain wealth and privilege. So, this post sings to me.
So, I pray you find your place. Find the beautiful place within yourself. And share it boldly.
Tonight’s Haiku: February 23, 2025
this late winter morn
a sign of impending spring
waking to birdsong
