I came up with this one on my walk this evening. It was a clear night, and the air brisk.
The image was pulled together with Canva, and the rest done with TikTok’s app.

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.
Autumn’s Approach
the grace of summer
continuing to hold on
autumn approaches
I found this flower along the Edmonds Waterfront on my walk yesterday afternoon. It’s one of my favorite places to be.
I hope this finds each of you well. May you be refreshed and energized this weekend.
Rain Clouds to the West
rain clouds to the west
quietly pass overhead
hiding the sunlight
Morning Rain
in the morning rain
gently upon the petals
amidst the birdsong
Rainy Night Haiku
rainfall in the dark
autumnal scents descending
windchime's gentle tone
Sunset Haiku
summer sunsets
gently across the mountains
gracefully cooling air
Today’s Haiku, August 15. 2023
silence eroding
the filling of coffee cups
crows seek their breakfast

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!
An Animated Haiku
Today’s haiku video was created with Canva, a powerful freemium design tool. If you’re not familiar with it, I highly recommend it. The free version has plenty of functionality, and the premium versions are amazing without the high costs of Adobe.
