An Early Morning Haiku

looking for heaven
feeling sunlight and a breeze
here amongst the trees

Today’s haiku

One of my Rhoddie’s

into the spring sky
my gaze drifting into where
yesterday's clouds were

Spring berries, a haiku


glorious red drops
resting against the blue sky
sunlight after rain

Today’s Haiku, April 2. 2024

My rhododendron
a burst of sunlight 
feeding the new spring flowers
a break in the rain

March 23, 2024

while the raindrops fall
this day of rest progresses
into the night’s grace

Rain filled this day, and my energy level was, well, absent. But I clearly needed rest. So,  I rested. A gift to myself,  I guess.

Tonight’s Haiku

wonders of daylight
as slowly the sun descends
and spring now begins

I took this photo on my evening walk along the waterfront in Edmonds. Sunsets over the Olympics are some of my favorites.

Today’s Haiku, March 17 2024

the snows have faded
cherry blossoms take over
within sun drenched skies

I took this photo on my walk today.


Tonight’s Haiku,  March 14, 2024

as I face the west
sunset’s grace on the mountains
the air turns colder

I took this photo on my walk this evening along Edmonds’ Marina Beach. Is one of my favorite places,  period. Some of the best sunsets I’ve ever seen are looking out at the Olympic Mountains of Washington.

Oh,  and happy Pi Day, for those who celebrate.

Today’s Haiku, March 2, 2024

the dance of sunlight
through the rain and falling snow
winter’s grip remains

I took this photo on my walk this afternoon. One filed with rain and snow, abs a stop for coffee.

Tonight’s Haiku

crocuses arise 
finding their way upwards
after the show melts
