Winter Berries

Elderberries

winter bares food, too
and the birds know where to seek
so life continues

Found these berries on a recent walk. Summer, of course, bursts with live giving foods for all. Winter, it seems, is more stealthy. But food is present!

arms reaching ever skyward

My Contribution to the @Baffled #HaikuChallenge

Today’s word: think.

underneath the trees
forest’s calmness helps me think
needed clarity

Forests calm me. Birdsong, the scent of firs, a gentle breeze. All bring tranquility.

Frost on the Grass

frost upon the grass
breadcrumbs for the Steller’s Jays
dawn’s tranquility

Friday Evening

The sun descending
Western mountains afire
Reaching for my dreams

It’s been a frenetic week, but productively so.

A summer’s evening haiku

through the summer’s sun

life drips down upon the earth

bees sing merrily

grey skies fill my eyes

raindrops linger in my dream

coffee’s beauty reins
