A Cloudy Night Haiku

clouds dancing eastwards
souls uncovering new dreams
wind chimes whispering

Memories of Summertime

ghosts of flowers
memories of summertime
echoes of love songs

A December Walk

Walking in the cold
Wind biting through the sunlight
The finch’s motion

A Christmas Day Haiku

such a lovely day

walking in cold sunlight

December’s blessings


My wife and I went for am afternoon walk with my wife down in Edmonds, my favorite little town. A fine way to spend an afternoon, methinks.

I hope your holiday filled you with happiness and joy.

An evening walk

Walking in the night
Silently through this suburb
Alone with winter

Cloud Covered Mountains

clouds grasping stones

visages hidden with grace

the movement of light

The Night Climbing Down The Clouds

the evening moving

sunlight crawling down the clouds

a long solstice night

Winter Arrives

the rain clouds lighten

greedy puddles expanded

wintertime arrives

The first day of winter arrives, dawn finally brightens Seattle’s clouds. Today follows a day of record rain and related aggregations. 

With the passing of the solstice, I await the longer days and the promise of spring. 

A Haiku For A Rainy Night

this hard, cold rain
flowers in December
a street light flickers
