A Walk In Lynnwood: Tonight’s Haiku
Walking in this park
Amidst these blooms of heather
Preparing for rain
Friday Night, April 17, 2019
Trees bursting with blooms
Blossom petals slowly fall
Seasons still changing
A Windy Night Calms
Now in night’s darkness
The air has become silent
Peacefulness reclaimed
It’s now calm as the wrong storm has passed through Seattle. Hope all you Seattle area folks got through relatively unscathed. Sure seems a bit of a mess right now.

When facing evil
Focusing fully on grace
Always seek to grow

The day’s remnants fade to dust

Compassion’s Flow
Remember dear friends
Seek out love and compassion
Flow through you and out
Today’s challenge
A challenging today
Turning off the modern mind
Breathing in fresh air
Facing my storm
A storm faces me
Destruction; my own making
Irrational fears
