the air this spring night
coolest touch upon my face
footsteps though silence
Facing Forward

the air this spring night
coolest touch upon my face
footsteps though silence

approaching a pond
delighting in the frogsong
Basho’s memory
Walking in my neighborhood, there are a few ponds. Tonight I noticed the frogsong…for the first time this spring. I doubt the frogs have been silent until tonight. Probably just the first night I was out late enough.

rain speckled petals
grey motion above the trees
the colors of spring

with the clock’s motion
moonlight hidden by the trees
quiet memories

under the sunlight
the seduction of flowers
bees singing their song
sunlight through this glass
floating across the pages
a crow laughing

Tonight’s Haiku:
the grace of sunlight
treading lightly over waves
robin glancing down

I sit upon wheels
this motion through the daylight
robins cheer me on

moving through darkness
still hints of dusk through the trees
birds dreaming of dawn

While walking this evening for exercise and mental clarity, I came across these blossoms.
sunsets through the trees
gently, the birdsong ending
a heron in flight
