Tonight’s Haiku,  March 14, 2024

as I face the west
sunset’s grace on the mountains
the air turns colder

I took this photo on my walk this evening along Edmonds’ Marina Beach. Is one of my favorite places,  period. Some of the best sunsets I’ve ever seen are looking out at the Olympic Mountains of Washington.

Oh,  and happy Pi Day, for those who celebrate.

Walking at night: a haiku

Tonight’s haiku
walking through the cold
feeling the grace of the night 
soon the rains return

It was a good night for a walk. Brisk air was mitigated by my jacket. My main challenge: being near invisible to the passing cars. But most of my walk was far off the main roads. Thus, my key sensation was tranquility.

FWOC: Maximum

A blogger I follow, WoollyMuses, posted his contribution to Fandango’s One Word Challenge: Maximum. So, I thought I’d add to that.

Manzanita Sunset
the grace of daylight 
sunlight moves across the sky
onwards to the west

The photo above is one I took in Manzanita, Oregon a few days ago. Shot with my Samsung S22.

Raindrops on petals

morning calmness 
the rain gently falling
life's graceful moments

Summer heat has been running strong this week. Today was a respite. 20 degrees cooler than yesterday with a gentle rain. A nice bit of relief.

I took this photo just outside of my office this morning. It seemed perfect. I enjoyed the moment, at least.

I hope your day went well. I know life’s pretty miserable for this of you on the East Coast. May the smoke clear quickly for you all.
