Pursuing Progress
do you know I’m sad?
walking alone on concrete
tears hidden by rain
This is my contribution to today’s Word of the Day Challenge: Sad. Fitting, I guess, for a rainy, gloomy day in Seattle. Many days like today’s hosted sadness. Lately, though, even in the midst of the pandemic, I feel calmness, tranquility.

walking in sunlight
onwards towards dusk and nightfall
the echo of dreams
upon the path
moments of life in motion
through winter air
blue sky peeking through
in the light of dawn
this bitter bite of winter
balancing with grace
The winter air has a substantive bite. Our weather reports hinted at snow, January marching into February. Yet, even in this time of cold, of darkness, flowers grace life with reminders that spring approaches.
cold winter rain
early morning darkness
I shiver, alive
calming sunlight
graceful arc through the trees
hope arrives before spring
sunlight reaching me
right through the clouds and the trees
the motion of life
A day where change culminated. Some joyful, some less so. Forward motion, though: progress.
upon this roadside
while walking in the sunlight
the motion of life
a winter walk
calmness amongst the trees
crows chattering
