The day’s busyness
Finally able to sit
Now, to find quiet
poetry, prose, and photography
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.
The day’s busyness
Finally able to sit
Now, to find quiet
Rain is now falling
Seattle reminding me
Of where I live
Reflecting on change
How economics push us
Some times, push us down
Upon the gym’s floor
Expanding my strength outwards
Seeking betterment
Today’s gratitude:
The joys of a morning tea
And functioning cars
Sitting in stillness
Pondering forgotten dreams
No regrets, just peace
Languid summer days
Sweetly flavored ice on sticks
The joys of childhood
I’m grateful for these:
Joyous children around me
Love’s capacity
Light exudes comfort
Low slung Sun filtered through firs
Glinting off the dew
