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.

in the winter's sky
mountains rising through the wind
beyond bitter cold

the morning snowfall
soon to be trampled by life
fading in the sun
The past few mornings have featured snow. Usually it’s melted by early afternoon. I’m grateful that it’s not become a giant ball of ice overnight.

while the clouds moved past
winter's power continues
sleet and snow descend
this winter rainfall
gently upon the rooftop
silence of the night

sunlight in the cold
bitter frost upon the grass
the grace of my coat
It’s been a cold couple of days here on the PNW. Looks like it’s been quite cold (brutal?) throughout a lot of the US. I’ve had the additional annoyance of fighting a nasty and belligerent cold. The remaining symptom: coughing. I’ve had to reschedule one dentist appointment, and that looks like it’ll become two. Sigh…
I hope 2025 has been kinder to you.

winter moves forward
cold air underneath the clouds
this infectious gloom

within winter's depths
and sunlight's power reduced
life resists the gloom
this cold rain
amidst barren trees
a rose blooms

clouds vibrant motion
brushing against the full moon
storms pass at nightfall
walking near the shore
under the autumnal dusk
glorious colors
