how far have we moved?
the sun across the sky
and the moon so close
Created this image in Adobe Spark with a built in template and image. Loved the photo, and thought this haiku worked nicely with it.

Grace Hopper, Lord of Cobol
I’m a fan of Dr. Admiral Hopper. Funny, with all my years of enjoying Battlestar Galactica and Dr. Hopper, I’m surprised that I never connected “Cobol”, Dr. Hopper and the Lords of Cobol.
So, here’s a bit of fun whipped out in Photoshop.
Below is a brief history of Cobol. A critically important programming language.
Full Moon Haiku
tonight’s full moon
keeping me company
this restless night
Edit: corrected spelling
Time Lurching
as time seems to lurch
between speed and stagnation
flowers move forward
Doorways
the passage of time
sun and rain changing so much
yet beauty remains
I found this door on a recent trip to Port Townsend, WA. The marvelous character of this worn door spoke to me. All things age. Where do we find our grace?
Memories of Bees
the wind’s graceful arc
flowers moving through the sun
memories of bees
Bruce Lee Quote: Be Water, My Friend
For me, this is a famous and well-known quote. However, not everyone spends as much time with martial artists as I do. This came up in conversation today, and my friend hadn’t heard this quote. So, I thought it would be valuable to share.
I think this is particularly relevant today. Our fast-paced, manic, ever-shifting world being fluid and able to adjust is a critical career skill now. Be formless, take the form of wherever life takes you. There’s value in that.
Hurricane Hunters?
I love xkcd comics! With the recent hurricane, I thought this was rather timely.
Me being me, if I were an inadvertent passenger on a hurricane chaser flight, I expect I’d utilize all the flights barfbags. Yes, that’s where my mind went!
Anyway, you should subscribe to them. Now!
A pre-dawn haiku
Pre-dawn
Tranquil silence ~
My pen and I
I love early mornings, before anyone else is awake.
Living: grace’s gift –
To feel sunlight on your face
And the evening rain
