the grace of sunlight
dancing in the ocean breeze
the sun arcs downwards

Manzanita Sunset

as the sun descends
day drifting to memory
the birds still singing
Rain

as the water beads
flowing across the petals
rains drift westward
Today’s Haiku Challenge: Jasmine

hints of jasmine
linger in my memory
intense yet hazy
This haiku is my contribution to today’s “haiku challenge” on Twitter.
I’ve been contributing to this for years. It’s one of my favorite parts of Twitter. As the Musk saga devolves, it’s what keeps me coming back. There a delightful community surrounding the challenge.
The image was crafted with Adobe Express using the Lara font.
Tranquil Moments

under the sunlight
crows relaxing with their friends
such tranquil moments
Ferry At Golden Hour

descending sunlight embraces golden hour facing the sunset
As Dusk Progresses

as dusk progresses
the moonlight's grace emerges
while I gaze skywards
This photo was taken with my Samsung S22. I am often amazed at what I can shoot with a phone camera nowadays.
Sunday Flower

slowly opening sunlight hidden by the clouds such gentle motion
Evening Haiku

between the rain squalls
sunlight mellowed by the clouds
petals unfurling
After the rainfall

after the rain squall
laden branches bent downwards
gravity's demands
