This early morning
Birdsong dances in the air
Dawn climbing the trees
Category: Haiku
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.
Blossoms from Buds
Standing in sunlight
Buds changing into blossoms
Spring’s evolution
The sun is up. It’s time to change the world!
The sun is now up
It’s time to change the world
You are important
There’s so much work to be done to make this world kinder, just and equitable.
Germs are creeping up on me this evening
Sitting in darkness
Dreams crowding my awareness
My germs arguing
Yeah, I’m feeling germs creeping up. Coughing. Sigh.
Hopefully, a good night’s rest will reset me.
Tonight’s Haiku: The Rhododendron
Springtime bursting through
Life coming forth boisterously
Sunlight upon dust
A Meditation On Outrage And Rage

Why do villains laugh?
Something I’ve wondred.
Why do villains always laugh?
A puzzling thing
To Be Someone Notable
We often struggle
To be someone notable
And not be ourselves
A Restless Night
Dreaming I’m awake
My own mind is sadistic
Now dawn approaches
Not feeling too well rested today. Ugh!
Happy Friday, everyone.
Oh, Editing! A Haiku
First: unload my mind
