A suburban life: a #haiku

Yet another day
Where I’m walking on these streets
This suburban life

As autumn flows in
Rain and lightening descending
I’ll remain indoors

As the evening comes
And the sky darkens slowly
The air feels autumnal

I hope your evening was delightful.

With water flowing
From the sky across the earth
Summer’s end is near

So much symmetry

Balancing shape and colors

Such summer glories

Walking in this park
Amidst these blooms of heather
Preparing for rain

Daylight’s glory fades

As the sky’s color changes

Surrounded by friends

I’m walking at dusk
As the daylight is consumed
Ducks and geese collect

Still signs of summer
And the sunlight is quite warm
I saw geese flocking

Under the sunlight
Farmers display their wares
Clouds splicing the sky

I love farmers markets. Two are nearby: Edmonds (Saturdays) and Everett (Sundays). If we miss one, we have the other. It’s a lovely setup.
