as the summer fades
at the air somewhat cooler
boldest of flowers

The above haiku is my response to today’s “Baffled Haiku Challenge“, a daily prompt posted on Twitter by the user Baffled. I try to contribute daily to this community. It’s a pretty awesome group of people.
Macabre: A Haiku
Here is my contribution to today’s “Fandango’s One-Word Challenge“: macabre. Not the most poetic word, methinks, but I appreciate a challenge. As I’m looking forward to the approaching autumn, I feel alignment. At that intersection I came up with this:
autumn approaching I'm celebrating darkness some find that macabre
Sunlight Cafe
this sunlit cafe
motion of people living
strangers intersect
Dusk: a haiku
within the twilight
the glorious sky coloring
night's tranquility
Today’s Haiku: Bursts of Color
footsteps on the path bursts of color reach my eye underneath the leaves
Saw these on my walk yesterday. They were striking, standing out solidly in the mass of green.
I finished up Summer quarter on my journey to finish my ATA in Web Development. I will write some about that soon. Six quarters complete and three quarters left. Now, what to do afterwards? So much opportunity, so many choices, thus, so many things to say “no” to. That’s my pain.
Grace of Summer
The grace of summer Greeting me upon my walk Sunlight through the clouds
Under Summer Clouds

hints of autumn rising up
gentle mists drift by
Today’s FOWC with Fandango
Fandango’s One-Word Challenge today features “lean”. So, here we go…

Summer Trees
amidst the trees
breeze dancing with the leaves
sunlight reaches me
