A walk by Edmonds Marsh

This morning I walked along the Edmonds marsh, grabbing this shot with my humble Samsung S20. The haiku flowed naturally.

I opted to add the text to the image directly via Canva. It’s been a while since I’ve done such and thought it would be good to stay in practice. Below is the text:

amidst the sunlight 
the agenda of flowers
 boisterous birdsong

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”.

Spring Lily
grasping for sunlight
while we move into springtime
though the rains come soon

I clearly delight in photographing flowers, especially in the spring. These are simply near me, spotted on my neighborhood walk. Shot on my Samsung S22 and unedited.
