Sunset: A Haiku

The colors of dusk

A crescent moon ascending

Autumnal air brisk

A haiku while walking in Everett

History in bricks

Such elegant stateliness

An autumn sunset

Siouxsie and the Banshees: A Haiku

I hear Siouxsie Sioux
Burning ash and destruction
Cities in the dust

The music of the 80s speaks to me. So many memories, pain and joy, anguish and exaltation.

A Trip To Whidbey Island: A Haiku

A morning journey 

Off to the nearby island 

With people I love 

Spent the morning over in Whidbey Island watching a cross country regional competition. I’ve known many of these kids their whole lives, so there a certain poignancy.

Year’s Cold Edge 



I feel fear’s cold edge 

Darkness descending early 

Wearing my wool clothes 

Autumn’s presence now permeates the air. Leaves fall with vigor.  

Lessons about Winning 

I struggle to see 

That “not losing” and “winning”

Are not the same thing

I’ve been working on myself lately. Adjusting my.mind, embracing the possibilities, and releasing all the fears lurking within, holding me back. 

Beginnings 

When we start anew 

Beginnings have excitement

Amidst falling leaves 

An Autumn Night At The Shore

Underneath the moon

And this glorious sunset

Autumnal beauty
