Posted this haiku on my Instagram page this morning. Exploring minimalism, the essence of haiku, combining it with a modernistic design. To accomplish this, I opted for a Helvetica-esque font, right alignment, and no ornamentation. I hope you like it.

The Distraction of Electrons
with sunlight falling
I’m abuzz with distraction
called by electrons
A Good Morning Haiku
night is complete
dawn’s grace arrives
resisting waking
A Good Night Haiku
through the summer’s sun
life drips down upon the earth
bees sing merrily
Early Morning #Haiku, July 20, 2020
in the morning air
humanity is silent
I hear the birds sing
July is marching past. August approaches quickly. I doubt I’ll be ready, but the universe doesn’t care. Always forward motion, I do my best to prepare.
Haiku, July 19, 2020
the well lit blue sky
as summer’s glory descends
birds sing from the trees
the gift of friendship
sunlight shines through darkest clouds
this day filled with grace
Tonight’s Haiku: July 14, 2020
movement of my feet
scenes along these quiet streets
suburban whimsy
I came across the cover photo on this evening’s walk. I’ve seen it before, and really get a kick out if it.
It’s really feeling like summer in Seattle. It really hasn’t had the feel until the past few days. Fortunately, it’s not too hot. I’m truly acclimatized to these moderate climes.
A Haiku About Whitespace
As a designer and fan of simplicity and modernism, I have come to greatly appreciate both white space and haiku. So, I created this quick poem to capture that essence. I hope you enjoy!
Today’s Haiku : July 12, 2020
each moment grace
talking with friends of fears
as the rain falls
