I saw these flowers amidst the cold breezes of the past few days in Seattle. Flowers have a fierceness to them, don’t they?
Remnants Of Summer: Tonight’s Haiku
Tag: Daily Haiku
I adore the simplicity, as well as the challenge of Haiku. The constraints focus my mind, seeking out the essence of the moment, feeling, notion, distilling it to brilliant singularity.
My goal: to post at least one haiku a day.
Walking In Suburbia
A haiku reflection on this evening’s walk. Very delightful journey through this suburb I call home.
A Seahawks Haiku
Fans with explosives
The Seahawks have a new win
Evening distortions
Tonight’s haiku is inspired by my neighbors who are loudly celebrating the Seahawks win.
A Birthday Haiku
The sun’s not yet up
On this, another birthday
I feel contentment
Devouring Rage
We devour rage
And it seeps into our bones
One tweet at a time
A meditation on modern culture. Am I off base? What do you think?

My Daily Haiku, September 28
My feet are moving
I delight in the darkness
A sense of calmness
Walking at Twilight
Walking at twilight
The sense of forward motion
My tranquility
I value my evening walks. They bring me focus and settle down my more manic moments. Often, I listen to podcasts. Today, though, I opted for music. Spotify is glorious if you love music like I do.
Tonight’s Haiku
Though the air has cooled
These flowers resist autumn
Sunlight’s grasp waning
I took this photo in Edmonds, a small town north of Seattle. I’ve lived most of my life in its orbit. My heart has a dear place for this place.
A Monday Morning Haiku
This Monday morning
My mind is feeling murky
Rain in the darkness
I hope your Monday it’s the start to a productive and satisfying week.
A suburban life: a #haiku
Yet another day
Where I’m walking on these streets
This suburban life
