Today’s Haiku Challenge: Jasmine

Today’s haiku

hints of jasmine 
linger in my memory
intense yet hazy

This haiku is my contribution to today’s “haiku challenge” on Twitter.

I’ve been contributing to this for years. It’s one of my favorite parts of Twitter. As the Musk saga devolves, it’s what keeps me coming back. There a delightful community surrounding the challenge.

The image was crafted with Adobe Express using the Lara font.

Tranquil Moments


under the sunlight 
crows relaxing with their friends
such tranquil moments

Ferry At Golden Hour


descending sunlight
embraces golden hour
facing the sunset

As Dusk Progresses

Crescent Moon

as dusk progresses
the moonlight's grace emerges
while I gaze skywards

This photo was taken with my Samsung S22. I am often amazed at what I can shoot with a phone camera nowadays.

Sunday Flower

Rose bud along the waterfront

slowly opening
sunlight hidden by the clouds
such gentle motion

Evening Haiku

This evening’s haiku
between the rain squalls 
sunlight mellowed by the clouds
petals unfurling

After the rainfall


Raindrops on leaves

after the rain squall 
laden branches bent downwards
gravity's demands

Evening Haiku

Evening haiku

after the sunset 
fir boughs moving in the breeze
the windchimes singing

Morning Dew

Blossoms
barefoot through the grass
with the dew cooling my toes
breeze through the blossoms

This morning’s haiku

crows calling 
through the morning mists
petals gently fall
