these giant tulips
petals beginning to fall
springtime keeps moving
poetry, prose, and photography
My interest in photography started back in elementary school, and I studied continuously through high-school. The shift from analog/film to digital changed so very much, yet so much remains the same.

these giant tulips
petals beginning to fall
springtime keeps moving

under the sunlight
these joyous echoes of spring
fading so quickly

sunlight on the sand
warmth flowing upon my face
as the rains approach

This morning I walked along the Edmonds marsh, grabbing this shot with my humble Samsung S20. The haiku flowed naturally.
I opted to add the text to the image directly via Canva. It’s been a while since I’ve done such and thought it would be good to stay in practice. Below is the text:
amidst the sunlight the agenda of flowers boisterous birdsong

teardrops
reminding me
love is eternal

a break in the rain
sunlight drifting downwards
through cherry blossoms

the glorious sky
I'm watching the cloud's motion
new life in the sun

as flowers arise glories of springtime renewed boisterous colors
The past few days have seen this rhododendron, long part of my front yard, erupting with blooms. Though my allergies are now in full fury, I still delight in these.
This poem is my response to the Word of the Day Challenge. Today’s word is “Arise”.

I clearly delight in photographing flowers, especially in the spring. These are simply near me, spotted on my neighborhood walk. Shot on my Samsung S22 and unedited.
