the abyss’ edge
I finally stare within
seeing myself stare back

Today’s Haiku
the rain grows warmer
slowly the plants awaken
the season's motion
I saw this little blossom on my walk today. Right before the rains started. It’s was cold, then damp. But I was equipped, so it was pleasant. Not a bad way to surrender a Sunday afternoon.
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 Daily Haiku

A Haiku For The Day

It’s been a hot minute since I last posted a haiku, so here’s one for you today. This photo is from my walk along the Edmonds Waterfront. It was a lovely day; started sunny and slowly clouds drifted in. It stayed dry, fortunately for me.
I adore writing haiku, though I’ve been trying to write about my explorations into tech. More professional, I guess. I’ve been told to focus on your brand with your social media. But, what is my brand? I mean, I’ve written tons of haiku, and they’re some of my most popular content. But, they don’t bring in the money, do they? Maybe I need to work to monetize them. Oooohhh…I can be an influencer?
Anyway, I’m still trying to figure out what I want to do with myself next. I’ve been focused on IT, web design, and other technology “things” for the past few years. With that, though, I’ve received constant feedback that I should look at Project Management. Instructors, supervisors, family…constant stuff. And by the same people who then ping me to fix their printers.
I guess I’m still trying to “find my way”. Maybe my way is to take pictures and write haiku? Not gonna get rich at that, but it’s fun. Who knows?
Let me know what you think! Anyway, talk to you soon.
Rain Clouds to the West

quietly pass overhead

Today’s Haiku Challenge: Waves
sunset through the waves sunlight sparkles upon the surf fading into night
On Twitter, er, X, the user @Bleu_Owl posts a daily prompt “Haiku Challenge”. Today’s prompt is “wave”. The above is my contribution. I hope you enjoy it!
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.

Tranquil Moments
under the sunlight
crows relaxing with their friends
such tranquil moments
Sunday Flower
slowly opening sunlight hidden by the clouds such gentle motion
