A Seattle Saturday Morning Haiku

ache of the cold wind
clouds moving with great speed
a seagull’s poem

Under the Fir Trees

under the fir trees

eyes closed, awaiting the dawn

gently falling rain

Walking In The Rain

​walking in the rain

moss covered stones by the brook

such calm memories 

I just discovered a new writing prompt series created by Ronovan Writes. I love the concept and look forward to exploring the community further. 

This haiku responds to this prompt: Ronovan Writes #Weekly #Haiku #Poetry Prompt #Challenge #287 Brook&Moss, which seems like a perfect prompt for a Seattleite. 

This morning’s #haiku: awaiting dawn

awaiting dawn 

light’s grace upon the dark clouds

rain’s song to the trees

Dawn may come earlier, but it’s still dark before I leave for work, still dark on many drive home. This, at times, challenges many mood. I work to stay cognizant of my minds health. 

Tide Against Sand


tide moves against sand

with air dancing upon waves

heron’s patient stealth

The Solstice is Past

with the solstice past
daylight stays with us longer
spring whispering now?

A Haiku Near A Bookstore

within this metal
this writer’s soul delighted 
festive tinsel’s song

A Cloudy Night Haiku

clouds dancing eastwards
souls uncovering new dreams
wind chimes whispering
