I realize I’ve missed a few days. So much for my goal of posting daily.
Ok, let’s try to get back on-track.
I hope each of you has a lovely Sunday and are set up for a productive week.

I adore the simplicity, as well as the challenge of Haiku. The constraints focus my mind, seeking out the essence of the moment, feeling, notion, distilling it to brilliant singularity.

as the night descends
sunlight drifts through the mountains
and dawn's grip loosens
afternoon sunlight
gently drifting through the trees
winter progresses
winter moves forward
gently, gently towards the spring
already hints abound
Went for a walk this afternoon and saw this bud on a tree. Seems a bit premature, but trees are not logic based creatures.
the roar of silence
streetlights piercing the hidden
at the edge of dreams
Created this one with Adobe Express. I do love creating these.
I hope this finds you well, my friends. Age that your weekend exceed all your hopes.
I read this haiku over on Charlotte Digregorio’s blog.
out of the blue
the window washer
brightens my day

Modern Haiku, Vol. 37.2, Summer 2006
This reminded me of an experience I had back in the 90s. I worked on various projects at a variety of firms. In one of them, I was at a law firm in the Columbia Center, a 73 story building in downtown Seattle. We were located on the 60th some odd floor, and one of my colleagues was startled by the window washer appearing outside her window. The ensuing shriek garnered all of our attention, and amusement…including that of the washer.

an amused window washer
my startled colleague
walking through the cold
feeling the grace of the night
soon the rains return
It was a good night for a walk. Brisk air was mitigated by my jacket. My main challenge: being near invisible to the passing cars. But most of my walk was far off the main roads. Thus, my key sensation was tranquility.
I came up with this one on my walk this evening. It was a clear night, and the air brisk.
