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 sunlight
breeze changes direction
opportunity
I see so much opportunity, and how privilege feeds that. How I can pick and choose amongst these choices, while so many others struggle to get by.
How can I leverage privilege and expand opportunity for all?
Is this how I make the world better?
walking in sunlight
renewed life fueled by its grace
moving through my space
Living in the suburbs north of Seattle, I see many flowers. You probably have no trouble discerning that from my posts. As a young man, I fled these burbs. Life’s sense of humor, though, kicked in hard. I know life just about a hundred feet from the house I grew up in.
The passing time brings perspective. Now I feel a deep love for this place. My connections deep: friendships, history, I can look at a spot and talk about decades of change, and stability. These suburbs resist change well, but not perfectly.
These flowers which bored me as a boy and young man, well, they now bring me happiness. Years of growth, of death, of change, yet the bees still buzz, flowers still bloom, and summer becomes autumn.
cool air
I rejoice
summer calmed
morning tea
a spot of honey
summer sunlight
walking near the shore
the scent of salt air delights
flowers worship sun
the bending of light
elegant dance of summer
longing for autumn
standing in sunlight
as I’m moving through summer
the breeze bearing life
this morning sunlight
a new day bringing its grace
go seek out beauty
night air: a respite
vanquishing the summer’s heat
longing for raindrops
summer’s excesses
Helios’ angry glare
I await night’s grace
