Orion’s Belt, Tonight’s Haiku

where the rain clouds were

I now see Orion’s Belt

a cold winter’s walk

The clear sky this evening, a welcome reprieve from the recent gloom. Made for a lovely, if rather cold, evening walk.

How was your evening?

Brunch in #Edmonds

A light mist outside

Delightfully warm within

My grandfather’s voice

My grandparents started coming to Edmonds’ Pancake Haus when it opened, and remained faithful customers til the end. My wife and I go somewhat regularly, enough that the staff recognize our son and ask about him. This connection brings me joy.

Do have any place with similar connections?

A Haiku From Today’s Walk

an afternoon stroll wind dancing upon the clouds my mind and soul clear Walking clears my mind. Always helpful and healthy, at times critical to my mental health. And health is a 2020 priority.

A haiku about self doubts

garbage in my brain insecurity’s drivel damaging my dreams So many negative feelings. Why things lije self doubt dominates our brain cycles eludes me. But I seek to overcome this.

James Baldwin: Today’s Black History Month Poet

James Baldwin Quote

This Baldwin poem resonates with me. Love’s grace comes with great power, inspiring fears and conquering cowardice.
