Mondays are a gift
Beginnings: great potential
How will you use it?

Winter’s Skies
winter’s skies return
sun obscured by dark rain clouds
spring’s grace is quite near
Walking: Tonight’s Haiku
Winter’s sunlight falls
Boldly matching across sand
Kingfisher glides past
A haiku over tea
Some afternoon tea
Combined with a tasty lunch
Spring’s not quite here yet
Enjoying a lite bite at Edmonds’ Red Twig. A lovely cafe with tasty food, lovely coffee and a good selection of teas, it’s a favorite stop for many of our neighbors.
A Leap Day Haiku
I expect this might be better classified as senryu, but I’ll let others decide.
Failed Motion: Tonight’s Haiku
Today’s Haiku: February 28, 2020
sparrow’s motion
light, agile upon sunbeams
mountains snore
Wednesday Morning Haiku
time’s motion
irresistible
spring
Two days until my job ends and I begin the next chapter of my life. Mixes sadness and excitement into a strange cocktail.
New Opportunities
life’s changes
new opportunities
cherry blossoms
I saw these blooms at Edmonds Community College today. I am moving forward with my career transition plan. My current position ends Friday, and I’ve grown weary of being let go all the time. So I’m going to study Web Design and Development. This excites me deeply.
Forward, always moving forward.
Life Update: February 26, 2020
Update in the life of Carl: this Friday will be my last day at my current job. Though tinged with sadness (great people to be missed, though a commute to Bellevue I rejoice in leaving behind), I move forward. After exploring some re-training options, I plan to study Web and Application Development at Edmond Community College. Though still ironing out details, this path excites me. With a gap in my time starting next week, I plan to spend time catching up as many people as I can. Friendship: life’s best present.
