southern wind challenges
trees bending with the waves
seagulls’ airborne dance
A windy Edmonds day

A Piano: Tonight’s Haiku
gentle touch of keys
movement of notes through the air
echoes of children
Today we journeyed down into Seattle’s University district. We ducked into the University Heights Community Center, which, decades ago was the elementary school my father and several of my uncles attended. I considered the thousands of children who passed through, their hopes, dreams and heartaches. Thus I connected to my history.
An Early Morning Haiku
darkness
street lights glimmer
memories whisper
Today’s Seattle Haiku
The sky to the west
The rain, yet again, has passed
Crows follow a hawk
Collecting My Thoughts
collecting my thoughts
seeking an organized mind
fill my life with joy
Journeys Through Seattle Traffic
attempting movement
I’m mostly stationary
solace through singing
Wednesday January 22, 2020
The sun’s above clouds
Droplets’ vigorous descent
Crows raucously call
Wednesday Morning Haiku
gift of life
seeking make it great
longing for beauty
Stars
I stand under stars
Heavenly motion births change
Memories of love
A Tuesday morning haiku for Seattle
rain upon my roof
gentlest of rattles
pre-dawn darkness
