Ugliness rises
And I must choose rage or peace
I seek out beauty

Today’s #Haiku: April 9, 2019
There are days we dread
At least I can see them come
These dark clouds moving
April 8, 2019: #Haiku
Walking down this trail
Raindrops passing through the trees
Seattle’s springtime
Monday morning #Haiku
Awakened pre-dawn
My mind racing with ideas
New blossoms have come
May your Monday start an effective and rewarding week.
A Haiku From This Evening’s Walk
The water’s stillness
With the sun moving westward
Spring’s daylight now ends
I live about 30 miles north of Seattle. I adore walking along the Edmonds waterfront. Many of my shots posted here are from this small city. My history here goes back a few generations. Simply walking here brings forth memories of cousins, grandparents.
This Morning’s Sunrise: A #HaikuÂ
The sun is rising
Always seek out the beauty
What’s focused on grows
Birdsong reaches through my window. My rest distracted. Dawn comes earlier each day. A blessing of the day. I love spring.
Today’s #Haiku: April 6, 2019
Spring is clearly here
Daffodils precede tulips
I walk in the rain
Haiku: April 5, 2019
A day of motion
Finally I can find rest
The sun through blossoms
SafetyÂ
His soul hides
Deep within old leather covers
Safe upon the shelf
Sometimes pulled down
Blowing dust free
Forgotten poems read
In the fading light
Of dusk
Time to Rise
​Beautiful words
Embrace my mind
Yet life demands
My attention
Word Shaper
