Every day I strive
To gain wisdom and to grow
Leave this world better

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.
A Good Morning Haiku For You
Sunlight’s debuting
Early morning darkness fades
Sounds of spring arise
Watching the dawn inch forward inspired this haiku. I anthropomorphise the sun, imagining pride and delight as humanity stirs underneath the reborn warmth. Perhaps there’s even love for us as we reawaken our striving.
So, here’s to a new day, it’s blessed possibilities, and all the potential you bring.
Embrace Your Boldest Dreams
Embrace your bold dreams
Seek the extraordinary
Become all you can
Focus on Love
Choosing direction
May sometimes be a challenge
Please focus on love
Spring rides the starlight
Evening has arrived
Listening to classic jazz
Spring rides the starlight
Faith’s Srength: A Haiku
Faith’s strength comes from trust
Belief in benevolent
Energies driving
Beginnings, Endings
Beginnings moving
Forwards towards middles, motion
Ends; begin anew
This Seattle Night, A Haiku
Rainfall’s insistence
Tapping upon my rooftop
This Seattle night
An early morning meditation
The doom of choosing
I’m afraid of being wrong
Predawn tree’s stillness
Seeing the Birds of Spring
Compassion and grace
Linked together as they loop
Spring’s birds appearing
