Spring’s Delights

another dawn breaks

more moments of spring’s glory

drift upon the breeze

Arise: A Haiku Response To The Word Of The Day Challenge

rhododendron

as flowers arise
glories of springtime renewed
boisterous colors 

The past few days have seen this rhododendron, long part of my front yard, erupting with blooms. Though my allergies are now in full fury, I still delight in these.

This poem is my response to the Word of the Day Challenge. Today’s word is “Arise”.

Burst of Blossoms

this burst of blossoms
underneath these moving clouds
a break in the rain

Before the rainfall

Camellia in spring light

before the rainfall
feeling the grace of sunlight
these wonders of spring

Dark Clouds To The West

Brackett’s Landing in Edmonds

dark clouds to the west
despite the ominous signs
continue moving 

A Winter’s Day

A snowy day

underneath the snow 
so much of life is asleep
dreaming about spring

Autumnal Flower

Autumnal Flower

cold autumnal rain 
sunlight returned joyfully
memories at night

I was able to fit a walk in between rain and wind. Found this lovely bundle of resistance peeking through the shrubs.

Rainfall at Night

Rainfall

rainfall in the night 
singing across my rooftop
the song of winter

This night of wind and rain, gently announcing winter’s approach. Laying in bed listening, remembering, so many omemories of rain in the darkness.

A Late Autumn Haiku


visions of autumn
daylight moves through clouds and rain
soon, soon winter comes 

Moving Clouds

Evening sky

clouds move
across the autumn sky
this dance of sunlight
