Autumn Dawn

limbs mostly bare 
a few tenacious leaves cling
dawn's light creeps westward

Through Autumn Storms

Autumn Rose

through the autumn storms
the rose's tenacity
shines through today's sun

Through Wind and Rain

on the path

through the wind and rain
maple leaves and fir needles
sigh upon the ground

Autumn’s Inevitibility

dried autumn leaves

leaves drifting
on a gentle breeze
inevitibility 

Autumn light

Forest mushrooms

through the autumn chill 
light drifting through clouds and leaves
glistening off rain
rose in the rain

a break in the rain
sunlight hides behind the clouds
the cool autumn air

Rainy Day Flowers


this cool morning air
more photos to file away
reviewed with my tea

This is my response to a haiku challenge on Twitter. This photo was taken on my Samsung S9 earlier this month but in weather similar to today’s (here in Seattle, at least).

Within the sunlight

Light through the trees

within the sunlight 
drifting through the mists and firs
life under the trees

Autumn Rains

Autumn Rains

autumn rains singing
glistening jewels upon leaves
gracefully earthbound 

This photo was taken a few days ago on one of my walks with my trusty Samsung S9. I love the effect of the raindrops!

Earthbound Blossoms

Earth bound blossoms

petals scattering
memories of fading spring
summer whispers “soon”

Watching the trees shed their blossoms’ petals is both beautiful and sad. Summer comes on the death of spring.
