Wednesday Morning Haiku

May 20, 2020 Carl SetzerLeave a comment

in this morning calm

do not rush; embrace the calm

near the feasting bees

Ah, the beauty of mornings. No one else awake, the sun rising, hidden by trees and clouds. A perfect Seattle morning…for me, at least.

A Windy Night Calms

December 20, 2018 Carl SetzerLeave a comment

Now in night’s darkness

The air has become silent

Peacefulness reclaimed

It’s now calm as the wrong storm has passed through Seattle. Hope all you Seattle area folks got through relatively unscathed. Sure seems a bit of a mess right now.

I sit in stillness 

The quietness calms my soul

I find hope therein

A haiku From My Evening Walk

With the sun’s motion
And the light starting to fade
Night’s calmness coming

Sunlight Ascending 

December 31, 2017 Carl SetzerLeave a comment

As sunlight climbs through the trees
Silently caressing my home
Shadows upon my window’s shades
Transform like living Rorschachs
Into distinct leaves, memories
Of the moment that’s fading

Early morning sound collage 

Silence dominates 

I hope your Sunday morning finds you peaceful and calm.
