a moment of rain
then the sun bursts forth
what does the future hold?

Tonight’s Haiku: April 27, 2025
wonders of springtime
flowers within the sunlight
birdsong fills the air
Tonight’s Haiku: April 24, 2025
with hints of purple
flowers changing through the spring
new wonders each day
Tonight’s Haiku
sunlight descending
brightening western mountains
quiet witnesses
Starting the day
awakened by self-doubt
criticizing all I've done
so I face within
resisting these words
embracing all that I am
keep moving forward
Tonight’s Haiku
every bouquet
begins with a single stem
blessings of springtime
This morning I went for a walk in Edmonds, one of my favorite things to do. I came across these daffodils, then came up with this haiku later.
Daily haiku: February 9, 2025
a few hints of snow
guarded by the bitter cold
graced by the starlight
Tonight’s Haiku: February 7, 2025
in the winter's sky
mountains rising through the wind
beyond bitter cold
Tonight’s Haiku: January 31, 2025
this winter rainfall
gently upon the rooftop
silence of the night
Today’s Haiku: January 26, 2025
sunlight in the cold
bitter frost upon the grass
the grace of my coat
It’s been a cold couple of days here on the PNW. Looks like it’s been quite cold (brutal?) throughout a lot of the US. I’ve had the additional annoyance of fighting a nasty and belligerent cold. The remaining symptom: coughing. I’ve had to reschedule one dentist appointment, and that looks like it’ll become two. Sigh…
I hope 2025 has been kinder to you.
