Afternoon Flowers: A Haiku

springtime’s presence here
flower’s garish excesses
sunlight fights viri

Crocuses in Spring

Crocuses in spring

the warmth of daylight
crocuses heralding spring
now songbirds slumber

March 10, 2020: Cherry Blossoms

more sunlight each day
and the grace of warmer days
cherry blossoms bloom

Daffodils: Tonight’s Haiku

the daffodils’ gaze
dancing on the near-spring breeze
while the jays chatter

New Opportunities

life’s changes
new opportunities
cherry blossoms

I saw these blooms at Edmonds Community College today. I am moving forward with my career transition plan. My current position ends Friday, and I’ve grown weary of being let go all the time. So I’m going to study Web Design and Development. This excites me deeply.

Forward, always moving forward.

Memories of Summertime

ghosts of flowers
memories of summertime
echoes of love songs

Walking in Edmonds, A Haiku

rain held back
clouds hide the sun
a rose glowing

Remnants Of Summer: Tonight’s Haiku

Summer's Remnants: A Haiku
Though autumn is here, These elements of summer, Surviving the wind

I saw these flowers amidst the cold breezes of the past few days in Seattle. Flowers have a fierceness to them, don’t they?

First Day of #Autumn, Tonight’s #Haiku

The blooms speak boldly, Boisterous in the sunlight, 
Now but memories
The blooms speak boldly, Boisterous in the sunlight, Now but memories

Well, today’s autumn. So I brought iut a photo from one of my walks last week. The weather was much nicer.

I hope your fall is fantastic.

Tonight’s Haiku

Though the air has cooled

These flowers resist autumn

Sunlight’s grasp waning

I took this photo in Edmonds, a small town north of Seattle. I’ve lived most of my life in its orbit. My heart has a dear place for this place.
