poetry, prose, and photography
through fading sunlight
walk along the waterfront
filled with memories
Most of my life orbited the Edmonds waterfront, just north of Seattle. My grandparents lived here. So many memories of walking with my grandfather here, sometimes riding the ferry. He loved talking with everyone, hearing their stories. His gift of listening appreciated.
through the nearby woods
the way, today, much drier
moving through winter
Yesterday’s moonlight
Interwoven amidst dreams
Drifting through my mind
resisting the wind
amidst winter’s aggressions
life’s tenacity
under damp branches
swaying underneath the breeze
stump returns to earth
from moon and stars
memories of tomorrow
drifting between dreams
I love this image I found on Adobe Spark. Might be via Pexals, but when I’m on the app, it’s not at all clear. But it’s a very fun haiku.
Ah! Windows update!
Monday morning with crisp air
Crows laughing outside
morning darkness
unwanted wakefulness;
listening to the rain
looking up at dusk
the stars starting to appear
the fog of my breath
Father and child
Gazing upon Christmas lights
Embracing wonder
