Listen to the surf
The wave’s eternal motion
Lulling me to sleep

I’m Awaiting Dawn: Today’s Haiku
This morning’s haiku is connected to waking up too dang early. I’m awaiting my pending alarm.
I will resist fear
For I long to seek out joy
And find potential
I’ve let fear run my life far too long. Fear of failure, of rejection. This paralyzes, destroying opportunity. This I resist.
Yeah, I often make things too complex
I often get wound up over the details in life. Seeking out the details can go to far and I simply add complexity.
When I hurt my arm, instead of looking for the best medicine cocktail, I need to do slap some ice in it. The sooner the better.
The Streetlight
Looking through the dark
Bugs orbiting a street light
Buzzing electrons
Always Seek Out Hope
Always seek out hope
Then our end will be better
Beyond what we guess
Moving through my life’s various trials in constantly struck by how often the results don’t match my predictions. At times, my conceptualization wasn’t even close. The best results achieve when I abandoned expectations and acted. Simply moved forward. Even if the end isn’t clear, the next step often is.
This summer morning haiku
This summer morning
Seattle’s cool mistyness
Singing to my heart
Something about Seattle’s misty mornings speak to my soul.
A Meditation On Zoe Keating’s New Album
Notes move over mists
These speak quietly to me
Passing through my heart
My affinity for Ms. Keating’s music continues to grow. Overlaying my delight in music and technology, she speaks to a deep part of my soul.
Fear gains it’s power
Loving our neighbors?
From the seeds of our distrust
Fear gains its power
This Age of Rage: A Haiku
In this age of rage
Where invective flows freely
Seek this voice of grace
