My Grandmother’s Voice

clouds across the sky

dancing upon mountain tops

my grandmother’s voice


Bees Speak In Code

the bees speak in code
can we hope to understand
secrets of petals?

Scent of Old Books

espresso machine’s song
hints of jazz piano

Thinking of Beat poets while listening to jazz this hazy, smokey Seattle morning.

With Autumn Nearing


With autumn nearing 

Streetlight flickers on, then off

A few dried leaves fall

A Walk Amongst The Trees

walking amongst trees

sunlight climbing to the west

motion of my feet

A Near Autumn Haiku

These ghosts of summer

Gently fading into time

This cool morning air

Time Lurching

as time seems to lurch between speed and stagnation flowers move forward

Memories of Bees

​the wind’s graceful arc

flowers moving through the sun

memories of bees

Bees on the flower, tonight’s Haiku

The grace of daylight
From the sky across the leaves
This dance of the bees

Walking in the evening light, a bee moves from petal to petal. Summer moves forward.

Summer’s Song

summer’s song
upon the lips of roses
grace of sunlight

Another photo taken on my evening pandemic walks. Getting outside, especially during the summer months feels good.
