such a brilliant day
those I love accomplishing
sunlight reaches me
Today I watched dear friends test for their blackbelts, and followed that up with graduation parties. The beauty of growth delights me deeply.

A Near Summer #Haiku
My feet move in rhythm
The sun hidden by the firs
Summer’s not here yet
A #Haiku From Tonight’s Walk
WALKING THIS EVENING
FOR THE GENTLE RAIN HAD STOPPED
THIS COOL EVEBING AIR
A Rainy Tuesday #Haiku
Even though it’s rained
Summer’s breath still dominates
And sunlight has returned
Sunlight’s Grace: A #Haiku
Looking towards the sky
And summer’s not quite here yet
This graceful sunlight
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
Explorations of Flowers: A #Haiku
Plant’s boisterousness
Speaking boldly in the spring
The bees are well fed

Sunlight on my skin
Fading into memory
Darkness approaches
Understanding Pandora and her boxÂ
