Monday’s mania
Subdued by evening calmness
Autumn night’s stillness
Frenetic days:
I’m not fond of them.
Such is life.
Respond, work,
Move along.

Violence Bets Violence
A message from the bishop of my Synod in response to the recent horror in Las Vegas :
Violence begets violence.
Peace begets peace!
We must be about peace.
+ Bishop Kirby Unti
I found this a perfectly poetical statement, and a powerful part of his email introducing this letter.
Monday Morning Haiku: Boundaries
It is important
To respect people’s boundaries
Not all hugs are safe
Sunday Night
Sunday night closes
The week’s power approaches
My house now silent
The Henson exhibit at Seattle’s MoPop
Two beings I’ve long known
Moments from my childhood
Muppets filled my dreams
A Haiku for #Seattle’s #Gumwall
This eclectic spot
Seattle’s famous gumball
Well worn paving stones
Seattle’s Rain Returns
Though late
I am not sleepy
I sit here, listening
Rain falls upon my roof
Forever, it seems,
I’ve loved that sound
Walking In Seattle
Those evenings at dusk
Fashionable, Seattle style
Nights in my city
Denying Hope
So much of life lost
Since we deny so much hope
Leaves starting to fall
Writing’s Mystery
Amusing
How I put pen to paper
Expecting certain words
To flow gracefully
I’m always surprised
At what lands upon
The page
