On the Ganges’ Banks
In my mind’s eye
On the Ganges banks
Sunlight rises from the east
Comparative silence
As the city returns to life
A wee spot of melancholy in today’s daily haiku

Mindfulness in Chaos
Facing down chaos
Though I spend time focusing
New demands arise
Today’s Haiku: Seeking Greatness
As I seek greatness
I look for something richer
Than mere dominance
What are we seeking?

Outside my window
Through the darkness of this night
Honeysuckle blooms
A Rainy Day In Seattle: Today’s Haiku
Another grey day
Rainfall has moistened the ground
Watching memories
It’s feels very much like September this morning. The ground is damp from overnight rain. I great the crows debating their aviary issues of the day.
Having spent most of my life in our around Seattle, this is a common vision. One that connects me to so many memories, good and bad. Today I’m remembering living in downtown Seattle. That was home for nearly 10 years after I got out of the Navy. Basically, most of my twenties.
A fascinating time of my life. Trying to understand my place in the world. Discerning my dreams and goals. Mostly discerning myself, and my soul as unique and individual. Before that I either lived at home, in a dorm, on a ship, or in a barracks. I’d never truly lived alone.
Pursuing Excellence
Believe in God’s light
Become the best I can be
Pursue excellence
