Today’s Haiku: Bursts of Color


footsteps on the path
bursts of color reach my eye
underneath the leaves

Saw these on my walk yesterday. They were striking, standing out solidly in the mass of green.

I finished up Summer quarter on my journey to finish my ATA in Web Development. I will write some about that soon. Six quarters complete and three quarters left. Now, what to do afterwards? So much opportunity, so many choices, thus, so many things to say “no” to. That’s my pain.

Dark Sky
under sunlight's edge
gazing upwards at the clouds
I have everything 

A Word Challenge Haiku: Insidious

I’m very fond of “Word Challenges”. Today I’m taking on Fandango’s One Word Challenge, and the word is “insidious“.


Morning Glory
Morning Glory
despite their beauty
these insidious flowers
destructively grow

Garden Lily

Lily
evening descending
such delights from my garden
in the cool night air

I saw this lovely flower in my garden today. This photo charms me. A simple thing, taken with my Samsung S9 with Instagram’s XPro filter.

A Walk Along The Beach

to approach the sand
as the wind comes from the west
sun behind mountains

Sunlight to the West

Sunlight to the West

sunlight to the west
dusk appearing through the trees
boisterous jays preach

A Day Of Sunlight

a day of sunlight
which we got to spend outdoors
tomorrow brings rain

Petals are Falling

amidst the birdsong
and the days getting warmer
petals are falling

Lucid: A Haiku

Haiku

Here’s my contribution to today’s FOWC (Fandango’s One-Word Challenge): lucid. In keeping with my current blogging focus of haiku, here you go:

as dawn’s light rises
my dreams brilliantly lucid
fading as I wake
