With wind blowing strong
These bold and daring people
Weren’t cowed by this storm
I wrote this haiku watching these two ignore cold and rain, dancing where wind and wave collide.

This Sunlit Sunday
Walking upon the shore
Sunlight landing upon my face
My skin warm, nicely so
Friend talk, warmed hearts
And children yet again taller
Than a moment ago
Evoking parental wonder, and triggering
Eternal frustration for children
Sun Stretched Upon The Cold Wind
The sun stretches me
Solar motion elongates
Sun in brutal cold
Walking along the Edmonds Waterfront. With the strong wind from the north, the air was brisk, cold. Bright and sunny later in the day, which made our mid-afternoon walk much more pleasant.
An evening walk
As the darkness falls
Light echoing the day’s joy
Fading to slumber
Dusk
As night descends
Summer’s air cools
I enjoy tranquility
A moment, flowing
Quickly, as life
Demands attention
Westward colors
Embrace the sky
Smoke, and other
Things, transcend
To beauty
The Edmonds Farmers Market
This little market
Speaking to me of summer
Gentle memories
Upon the Shore
My happiest place
It lies upon this shoreline
Sunlight and surf: joy!
Steel Magic Northwest is close to meeting their Kickstarter Goal
Steel Magic Northwest is a great local group (located in Edmonds) that provides access to music for a number of youth and adults. I know a number of kids, and adults, who benefit greatly. And they have a great time! The music is brilliant and the audience is having a grand time, too.

They’re using Kickstarter to fund their summer program, so I highly encourage you to head over to their site and give them a few dollars. They’re doing a all or nothing campaign for $3,000, and are at $2,910. Just $90 more dollars! Now, the campaign ends Friday (June 30th), so I (again) encourage…nay, implore you to head over right now and help this program do amazing for our community this Summer.
Flowers at the Market
I love these markets
Flowers have a special place
Portable beauty
Today in Edmonds
Into the expanse
Blue water, sky and mountains
Converge in sunlight
