Quiet Woods of Winter

quiet woods of winter 
today is filled with birdsong
soon leaves will return

Along the Shore

Along the shore

walking by the shore 
with geese bobbing in the surf
gentle signs of spring

Yesterday I spent a few hours along the Edmonds waterfront. A place of tranquil happiness for me. A rough week marched by, which I spent fighting a less brutal virus than usual. Sunlight and sea kissed air heal me in many ways.

This morning’s haiku: the morning darkness

Today’s haiku: morning darkness

the morning darkness
dawn still below the mountains
as I seek stillness
