this first day of spring
amidst the rain and cool wind
under the firs’ grace

Temperamental Weather
walking in the rain
which soon becomes a strong wind
and then it’s sunshine
Along the Water
along the water
under the sun, between trains
beside calm waters
I just finished up winter quarter, so I was able to spend the day as I wished. Today’s the projected last day of sun for a while, so I opted for a waterside walk today. Edmonds is one of my favorite places, so off I went.
Spring Approaches
underneath the sun
my soul lifted by it’s grace
as spring approaches
Took this photo on a recent walk. It’s been quite lovely the past few days here in Seattle. Though we still have a few days until spring officially begins, it’s presence is felt. And I’ve seen other signs of spring: trees, especially cherry trees, are starting to blossom. Winter’s grip, around here at least, seems to have weakened, perhaps even released. We can hope, at least.
Dancing with Sunlight

moving across western skies
the motion of spring
Underneath Sunlight
underneath sunlight
springtime’s grace flows through the firs
still need my jacket
Today’s sunlight was very welcome. I’ve been fighting some kind of “bug” since Tuesday night. The worst was Wednesday, but I’m still lacking energy. I was able to get a walk in this after, and get plenty of school stuff done, but I’m now wiped out. I expect to be near 100% by tomorrow, though.
Winter’s Motion
this winter’s motion
sunlight climbing through the sky
crocuses blooming
Through the Rainfall
through the rainfall
as it changes to snow
the birds now confused
Found this blossom during my walk the other day. More signs that spring is almost here. Yet today we had rain, wind, snow and hail. It was quite a day, weather – wise.
Newness
winter’s grip loosening
with the clouds drifting eastward
wonder of birdsong
Surprised By Sunlight
surprised by sunlight
after so much morning rain
this lightness of being
