Rain marching downwards
Gravity’s relentless draw
Early morning thoughts
Seeing the Birds of Spring
Compassion and grace
Linked together as they loop
Spring’s birds appearing
This Day Begins: A Haiku
Sunlight’s holding back
Eastern mountains soon will glow

LISTENING To MusicÂ
As youth I chose
To deeply explore music
Each word critical
Music is critical to me. For my teenage years, I focused my study there. Well, as best as I could focus at that age. Music means so very much to me. Understanding the way lyrics, melody and harmony intersect for the good of the story carried great value.
I seek to recapture that. Spent some time this morning enjoying it again. Until life’s demands intruded. Soon, I’ll return. These delights critical to my soul.

Between light and dark
Where love and anguish loiter
