though the rain has stopped
the ominous clouds stare down
birds oblivious
poetry, prose, and photography

though the rain has stopped
the ominous clouds stare down
birds oblivious




walking this evening
getting to see such beauty
life in quarantine
joyful floral scents
moments of urban beauty soon,
war’s horrors rise
I wrote this haiku after seeing the post below. Such a lovely photo coming a breath before the horror of World War I.
This bouquet of spring
A celebration of life
Sunlight through the trees
Can you believe that this is the last Monday in April? May first is Friday! I noticed that the cherry blossoms are already starting to be shed, the last trees now filled with blossoms. Spring now fully present, at least in Seattle.
I hope this finds you safe and well.
as night has fallen
the cool rain starts falling
trees move in the breeze
A reasonably pleasant spring day, high clouds and lacking in rain. Perhaps a bit muggy as the air was still. As the sun set, the breeze picked up. Once night fell. The rain started. Now, this is Seattle. So, not a downpour, but the well known Seattle drip.
I remained indoors most of the day. Got out for a roughly one hour walk, then grabbed dinner at the nearby 5 Guys. And then back to quarantine.
How’s it going where you are?

the clouds get darker
rain starts to fall on my face
and birds quiet now
