With darkness falling
The sun shining from down low
Easily through trees

Homewards: tonight’s haiku
As we move homewards
Across the San Juan Islands
Summer’s Joy’s awake
Hiking Lopez Island’s Iceberg Point
Within this forest
Passing all this Spanish moss
A cool summer’s day
Snake Up
Strange to see this snake
Atop this blackberry bush
Embracing the sun
I’ve never seen a garter snake climb on top of a bush. I wonder of this chap has taken a liking to berries.
Lopez Island: A Haiku
Awake this morning
And this view over the bay
Resetting my soul
The Sky Over Lopez Island
In this summer’s sky
With this glorious calmness
I ponder deeply
I’ve been enjoying crafting these designs Canva. It’s a solidly fun tool.
Remembering: a haiku about suicide’s fallout
His smile in my mind
A friend’s son just took his life
These clouds are broken
My heart is heavy today. We can be so cruel sometimes, especially with ourselves. If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts please know you are not alone and that there are people who will help.

An afternoon walk
The afternoon sun
Warm as we move to evening
My feet keep moving
A Summer’s Day Haiku
On this summer’s day
Suns warmth moving gracefully
I remember spring
It’s Monday morning: what will you do?
Another week begins
Now, what are you going to do
To make yourself grow?
