On this summer’s day
Sunlight flowing down to me
And gluttonous bees

A Dim Sum Haiku
Flavors of China
Dancing upon my palette
I can eat outdoors
Tonight’s haiku is about dim sum.
A Near Summer #Haiku
My feet move in rhythm
The sun hidden by the firs
Summer’s not here yet
A Rainy Tuesday #Haiku
Even though it’s rained
Summer’s breath still dominates
And sunlight has returned
An Almost Summer Haiku
Love this reddened sky
The darkness bringing cool air
Summer’s antidote
Saturday, June 1: Gratitude
Under this sunshine
Pondering fragility
And life’s strange graces
Such a strange week. Monday afternoon my son crashed his skateboard, ending up with a significant concussion and “mild” bleeding on the brain. Monday night & Tuesday were spent talking about many possible (and frightening) scenarios. Wednesday we’re talking about leaving and Thursday we made it home. Friday we joined some friends for dinner. Surreal, in the end.
Now, we only just started this journey. 45 minutes at dinner with friends exhausted him. He spent most this morning’s energy at our eye doctor’s simply getting glasses adjusted.
We’re home. His mind is mostly intact, and healing quickly. Doctors believe we’ll have 100% recovery. Looking at the possibilities, I feel deep gratitude. We escaped some brutal stuff. I’m grateful for that.
A Friday Night #Haiku
My son is sleeping
As night has taken over
This long week ending
A Spring Haiku
I glance to the sky
Momentarily pausing
Flowers on this breeze
Explorations of Flowers: A #Haiku
Plant’s boisterousness
Speaking boldly in the spring
The bees are well fed
Sunday’s Haiku
This morning: grey
Bold contrast to yesterday
Cool breeze on my skin
