Today’s word: think.
underneath the trees
forest’s calmness helps me think
needed clarity
Forests calm me. Birdsong, the scent of firs, a gentle breeze. All bring tranquility.

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.
Morning Light
in the morning light
possibility singing
never surrender
Daedalus dreamt of
traveling far with his son
anguish in sunlight
A Pause In The Rain
a pause in the rain
I head outside to walk

Life in Seattle often means adjusting plans in response to the rain. The photo in the featured image is one I took recently, font is Spectral.

Happy New Year 2021
explosions outside
clocks continue their ticking
nothing stopping time
I hope your 2021 brings you happiness and joy!

the sun’s descent
behind the mountains
into the sea
I took this photo at Marina Beach, along the Edmonds waterfront earlier this week. It’s one of my favorite place on earth.
Shot with my Samsung S9, I’m quite amazed at the quality of images that I get from my phone. I also wonder how much better my photos would be if I used a better phone, or, egads, an actual camera.
Night Haiku, December 28, 2020
on the edge of dreams
night takes ahold of my life
the moon and clouds sing

sunset in Edmonds
cold wind blowing from the west
brilliant colors sing
