Pursuing Progress
I took this photo on my walk this evening. As it’s still spring with flowers blooming like mad, that’s been my current focus, photography-wise. The haiku just felt right.
I’m looking forward to branching out further afield as the corona virus restrictions abate. I’m looking forward to getting back to downtown Edmonds, I do miss it so.
What are youlooking forward to add life returns to some semblance of normal, or a new normal.
the glories of spring
flowers singing with boldness
swallows harmonize
the praying mantis
facing down murder hornets
an ominous name
sunlight pushing in
another day comes to life
my eyes resisting
WITHIN THIS COLD RAIN
DROPLETS DIVING OFF FLOWERS
THE CROW LAUGHS WITH ME
walking this evening
getting to see such beauty
life in quarantine
joyful floral scents
moments of urban beauty soon,
war’s horrors rise
I wrote this haiku after seeing the post below. Such a lovely photo coming a breath before the horror of World War I.
in the light: judgment
in the darkness: acceptance.
moonlight through the clouds
the motion of spring
bold new life; cherry blossoms
slowly fall to earth
