poetry, prose, and photography
sunset through the waves sunlight sparkles upon the surf fading into night
On Twitter, er, X, the user @Bleu_Owl posts a daily prompt “Haiku Challenge”. Today’s prompt is “wave”. The above is my contribution. I hope you enjoy it!
hints of jasmine
linger in my memory
intense yet hazy
This haiku is my contribution to today’s “haiku challenge” on Twitter.
I’ve been contributing to this for years. It’s one of my favorite parts of Twitter. As the Musk saga devolves, it’s what keeps me coming back. There a delightful community surrounding the challenge.
The image was crafted with Adobe Express using the Lara font.
under the sunlight
crows relaxing with their friends
such tranquil moments
slowly opening sunlight hidden by the clouds such gentle motion
between the rain squalls
sunlight mellowed by the clouds
petals unfurling
barefoot through the grass
with the dew cooling my toes
breeze through the blossoms
modern dilemma
I see all my hopes and dreams
behind the paywall
A little mediation on modern life and media.
morning calmness
the rain gently falling
life's graceful moments
Summer heat has been running strong this week. Today was a respite. 20 degrees cooler than yesterday with a gentle rain. A nice bit of relief.
I took this photo just outside of my office this morning. It seemed perfect. I enjoyed the moment, at least.
I hope your day went well. I know life’s pretty miserable for this of you on the East Coast. May the smoke clear quickly for you all.
through fading sunlight dusk moves through cherry blossoms now petals falling
the grace of the sun
as it descends through the leaves
greeted by flowers
