After the Rainfall

after the rainfall
sun remains above the clouds 
autumn's progression

visions of autumn
daylight moves through clouds and rain
soon, soon winter comes

fallen leaves cleared
trees becoming more barren
autumn's progress

through the autumn storms
the rose's tenacity
shines through today's sun

these tenacious leaves
their grip strong through wind and rain
while the air grows cold

through the Autumn rain
jewels beading upon these leaves
I'm exhaling fog

within falling rain
I stop my walk to gaze at
this resilient rose

cold autumnal rain
with intermittent blue skies
alone with my thoughts

Raindrops on Petals

a break in the rain
sunlight creeps out from the clouds
the moment passes

Took this photo earlier this week. Lately, I’ve loved the effect of raindrops on leaves and petals. I hope you do, too.

A Rainy Seattle Morning

warmed by my tea 
rainy Seattle morning
tranquil memories
