sunlight’s downward path
as I wander past the fears
ah, cherry blossoms!
Ah, Cherry Blossoms!

Tonight’s Haiku: Eating Sunlight
March 10, 2020: Cherry Blossoms
more sunlight each day
and the grace of warmer days
cherry blossoms bloom
Near Spring Haiku
Daffodils: Tonight’s Haiku
the daffodils’ gaze
dancing on the near-spring breeze
while the jays chatter
A Daylight Savings Time Haiku
sunlight to the east
springtime deceiving our clocks
the air, cold and dry
Another step closer to spring.
The Past, The Future, Focus
stories of the past
yet I look to the future
I am far from done
Met a really cool guy today. A former Navy nuclear power program sailor, just like me. Though he is quite a bit younger.
Swapped stories of our respective experiences, which I enjoyed. Yet I often worry in those moments that I’ll become like the subject of Bruce Springsteen’s “Glory Days”, a relic, trapped in the past. Grave fate, for me, at least.
A bowl of pho
March 6, 2020
out into the night
a beacon on my sidewalk
crisp air reminders
Tonight’s Haiku: March 5, 2020
star filled night
reaching heavenwards
caressing God’s face
