An Animated Haiku
Today’s haiku video was created with Canva, a powerful freemium design tool. If you’re not familiar with it, I highly recommend it. The free version has plenty of functionality, and the premium versions are amazing without the high costs of Adobe.
Manzanita Sunset
as the sun descends
day drifting to memory
the birds still singing
Sunday Flower
slowly opening sunlight hidden by the clouds such gentle motion
Evening Haiku
between the rain squalls
sunlight mellowed by the clouds
petals unfurling
This morning’s haiku
crows calling
through the morning mists
petals gently fall
A Modern Dilemma
modern dilemma
I see all my hopes and dreams
behind the paywall
A little mediation on modern life and media.
The gentle rain
the gentle rainfall
droplets caress the petals
in the early morn
