Hummingbirds, Life, Death

I watch a hummingbird

<

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Are we only allowed 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>A specific number

This Day Begins: A Haiku

Sunlight’s holding back
Eastern mountains soon will glow
As this day begins

Returning To Normal

New Year's 2018

Now we transition
We’re returning to normal
Within this new year


 

Ready to get back to work? To shake things up and make a difference? If not, what do you need to do to change that? 

Tonight’s #haiku explores the passing of time and seasons

Winter advances
Yet the solstice passed us by
Change is approaching

A Wednesday Meditation

Now the week’s middle

So very much left to do

This steady constant

The Great Blue Heron

This gangly bird
Inelegant legs, bearing
Ghost upon the marsh

Seattle’s Rain Arrived

Raindrops tap windows

Gusts rattling the dried leaves

Autumnal cold rain 


The predicted reasons have come. Trees bend in the breeze, leaves drift across my drive. Summer’s memory flutters within the dried, damp leaves.
