poetry, prose, and photography
My interest in photography started back in elementary school, and I studied continuously through high-school. The shift from analog/film to digital changed so very much, yet so much remains the same.
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.

within gentle mists
the grace of springtime bursts forth
new cherry blossoms
life renews
hints of leaves coming forth
the rain grows warmer
ah, within this rain
gently drifting down my roof
this night's lullaby
I shot this photo yyesterday while on a walk, using my Samsung S9. Quite a versatile camera on my phone.
petals scattering
memories of fading spring
summer whispers “soon”
Watching the trees shed their blossoms’ petals is both beautiful and sad. Summer comes on the death of spring.
frost upon the grass
breadcrumbs for the Steller’s Jays
dawn’s tranquility

the passage of time
sun and rain changing so much
yet beauty remains
I found this door on a recent trip to Port Townsend, WA. The marvelous character of this worn door spoke to me. All things age. Where do we find our grace?
This photo called to me for a haiku, and I was delighted to oblige.
the sun slips below
warm blazing orange blankets
when will the stars dance?
joyful floral scents
moments of urban beauty soon,
war’s horrors rise
I wrote this haiku after seeing the post below. Such a lovely photo coming a breath before the horror of World War I.
the soul of a tree
life with bark skin forgotten
ghostly echoing
