I adore the simplicity, as well as the challenge of Haiku. The constraints focus my mind, seeking out the essence of the moment, feeling, notion, distilling it to brilliant singularity.

This eclectic spot
Seattle’s famous gumball
Well worn paving stones

Those evenings at dusk
Fashionable, Seattle style
Nights in my city
Filled with painful news
Death, destruction and much pain
Manifest sorrow
As I get older
Athletic has new meaning
It applies to me

Compline sung again
Mark another year of life
I am richly blessed
This dream of my youth
Needing to be loved widely
This thing: “Popular“
Darkness settled well
All my neighbors are silent
Not many leaves fell
