Shedding Sunlight: Tonight’s Haiku

shedding sunlight
night emerges, taking hold
summer raindrops fall

Tonight’s Haiku: Summer’s Rose

Summer Rose
feeding on sunlight
gracefully growing skyward
now the scent of rain

Bees: A Haiku

while the bees’s moving
gracefully over petals
preparing for rain


I’m pretty pleased with this photo, taken along the Edmonds waterfront.

A Haiku Response to the Word of the Day Challenge: Meeting

Another morning, another daily challenge. This time I am looking at the Word of the Day Challenge. Today’s word is “meeting”. With the pandemic and all, you might expect me to write about Zoom. But, no…

Flowers meeting

in the morning mist
flowers meeting to discuss
humanity's fate

A Word Challenge Haiku: Insidious

I’m very fond of “Word Challenges”. Today I’m taking on Fandango’s One Word Challenge, and the word is “insidious“.


Morning Glory
Morning Glory
despite their beauty
these insidious flowers
destructively grow

Garden Lily

Lily
evening descending
such delights from my garden
in the cool night air

I saw this lovely flower in my garden today. This photo charms me. A simple thing, taken with my Samsung S9 with Instagram’s XPro filter.

to approach the sand
as the wind comes from the west
sun behind mountains

Tonight’s Haiku : As The Daylight Dims

The Edmonds Waterfront

as the daylight dims

water pushing against sand

air becoming cool

Sunlight Wanes, Tonight’s Haiku

Woods at Dusk

at the sunlight wanes
footsteps echo through these woods
soon sleep will call me

Impressive: A Haiku

Here’s my contribution to today’s Word of the Day Challenge. The word: Impressive.

resisting wind, rain
feeding upon the sunlight
impressive glories

The featured image is a photo I took yesterday. I’m unsure of the flower type, but found it lovely.
