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!

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.

Gazing to the west

To the west
gazing to the west
with the sun descending low
as the air's cooling

Looking to the west as I walk through this park. Sunlight drifts through the trees. Summer in the north bringing a steep angle to the light. Richly beautiful. To me, at least.
