walking in sunlight
onwards towards dusk and nightfall
the echo of dreams

upon the path
moments of life in motion
through winter air
A Moment Of Blue Sky
blue sky peeking throughswallowed quickly by the clouds
whispers of springtime
Saw a moment of blue sky above the trees. I actually wore my sunglasses briefly on today’s walk. Seattle’s winter has reclaimed the sky, though. Yet, rest assured, spring approaches.
January Flowers
in the light of dawn
this bitter bite of winter
balancing with grace
The winter air has a substantive bite. Our weather reports hinted at snow, January marching into February. Yet, even in this time of cold, of darkness, flowers grace life with reminders that spring approaches.
Sunday Morning
cold winter rain
early morning darkness
I shiver, alive
Hope in the Sunlight
calming sunlight
graceful arc through the trees
hope arrives before spring
WordPress Word Of The Day: Vendetta
standing under clouds
the squirrels and crows arguing
ancient vendettas?
I discovered the WordPress “Word of the Day” challenge a long-time ago. Getting these prompts helped keep my creative side engaged. Then the WordPress team ended that project. Fortunately, others have stepped up to keep that initiative going.
Today’s word is “vendetta“. A challenging word, especially for my focus on haiku. As I watch the crows and squirrels quibble over the breadcrumbs in my backyard, I came up with this one. I hope you enjoy it!
The Motion Of Life
sunlight reaching me
right through the clouds and the trees
the motion of life
A day where change culminated. Some joyful, some less so. Forward motion, though: progress.

the motion of life
A Walk In The Woods
a winter walk
calmness amongst the trees
crows chattering
