Word of the Day Challenge: Habit, A Haiku

walking every day
my delightful new habit
feeling the sunlight

Today’s Word of the Day Challenge is to use the word “Habit”. As one of my key foci in 2021 has been daily walks, this seems a relevant post. This photo is from one my neighborhood parks from a walk this week.

On the Edge of Night

Street at dusk

on the edge of night
I’m walking beneath the wind
a gentle rain falls

Haiku Response to the FOWC: Disparage

Haiku 4-4-21

who can disparage
the wind’s grace within the sky
bird’s dance on the wing

This is my response to the Fandango Word Of The Day Challenge: “disparage”. One of my photos taken earlier this week, image edited in Adobe Spark, font Lora Regular.

Spring’s Sunlight

within spring’s sunlight
trees moving so gracefully
songbirds uncaring

Early Spring

springtime is nearing
flowers eating the sunshine
blown by the cool breeze

Temperamental Weather

walking in the rain
which soon becomes a strong wind
and then it’s sunshine

Spring Approaches

underneath the sun
my soul lifted by it’s grace
as spring approaches


Took this photo on a recent walk. It’s been quite lovely the past few days here in Seattle. Though we still have a few days until spring officially begins, it’s presence is felt. And I’ve seen other signs of spring: trees, especially cherry trees, are starting to blossom. Winter’s grip, around here at least, seems to have weakened, perhaps even released. We can hope, at least.

Underneath Sunlight


underneath sunlight
springtime’s grace flows through the firs
still need my jacket


Today’s sunlight was very welcome. I’ve been fighting some kind of “bug” since Tuesday night. The worst was Wednesday, but I’m still lacking energy. I was able to get a walk in this after, and get plenty of school stuff done, but I’m now wiped out. I expect to be near 100% by tomorrow, though.
