at the day’s ending
sunlight fades into the sea
gentle grace of night

A haiku at dusk
with dusk descending
and gently fading sunlight
flowers get their fill
Today’s Morning Haiku
with my morning tea
the gentlest of breezes
sunlight through the clouds
I love calm mornings. Today, Seattle’s weather seems to be pivoting from rain to partially cloudy. Blue skies punctuated with white clouds. Summer’s heat abated, whether temporarily or for the rest of the year is uncertain, but I’ll take the respite.
Autumn Approaches
orange and red leaves
as i gaze out my window
glories of autumn
The maple just outside my office window already shows autumn colors. Of course, September approaches quickly. Less than a week (Sunday) brings the new month. As tempting as it might be to make some reference to the passing of time, it doesn’t feel very creative.
Haiku: August, 25, 2024
after the rainfall
sunlight moves from behind clouds
summer reaches far
Happy Monday!
As I’m fond of bicycles and libraries, this image spoke to me well.
I hope you are well, and that your new week is filled with joy and vibrance.
Today’s haiku
this gentle rainfall
droplets sparkle in the light
while spring approaches
I created this haiku with TikTok’s built in tools. Then I posted it to Instagram amongst other places. These are lots of fun to create.
Anyway, I hope you had a good “extended Monday” (yesterday was the President’s Day holiday in the US).
Today’s Haiku Challenge: Jasmine
hints of jasmine
linger in my memory
intense yet hazy
This haiku is my contribution to today’s “haiku challenge” on Twitter.
I’ve been contributing to this for years. It’s one of my favorite parts of Twitter. As the Musk saga devolves, it’s what keeps me coming back. There a delightful community surrounding the challenge.
The image was crafted with Adobe Express using the Lara font.
An Autumn Walk
a crisp autumn walk
under the joyful blue sky
leaves slowly falling
Autumnal Leaves
glorious red leaves
autumn breezes gently brush
this life giving rain
