Tonight’s Haiku

crocuses arise 
finding their way upwards
after the show melts

A Haiku For The Day

gazing to the west
petals dancing in the breeze
as the sunlight fades

It’s been a hot minute since I last posted a haiku, so here’s one for you today. This photo is from my walk along the Edmonds Waterfront. It was a lovely day; started sunny and slowly clouds drifted in. It stayed dry, fortunately for me.

I adore writing haiku, though I’ve been trying to write about my explorations into tech. More professional, I guess. I’ve been told to focus on your brand with your social media. But, what is my brand? I mean, I’ve written tons of haiku, and they’re some of my most popular content. But, they don’t bring in the money, do they? Maybe I need to work to monetize them. Oooohhh…I can be an influencer?

Anyway, I’m still trying to figure out what I want to do with myself next. I’ve been focused on IT, web design, and other technology “things” for the past few years. With that, though, I’ve received constant feedback that I should look at Project Management. Instructors, supervisors, family…constant stuff. And by the same people who then ping me to fix their printers.

I guess I’m still trying to “find my way”. Maybe my way is to take pictures and write haiku? Not gonna get rich at that, but it’s fun. Who knows?

Let me know what you think! Anyway, talk to you soon.

Autumn’s Approach

Flower in sunlight

the grace of summer 
continuing to hold on
autumn approaches

I found this flower along the Edmonds Waterfront on my walk yesterday afternoon. It’s one of my favorite places to be.

I hope this finds each of you well. May you be refreshed and energized this weekend.

Morning Rain

Flowers in the rain

in the morning rain
gently upon the petals
amidst the birdsong

Grace of Sunlight

the grace of sunlight
dancing in the ocean breeze
the sun arcs downwards

Sunday Flower

Rose bud along the waterfront

slowly opening
sunlight hidden by the clouds
such gentle motion

Evening Haiku

This evening’s haiku
between the rain squalls 
sunlight mellowed by the clouds
petals unfurling

Morning Dew

Blossoms
barefoot through the grass
with the dew cooling my toes
breeze through the blossoms

After the Rainfall

after the rainfall
droplets gather on petals
sunlight through the clouds

This morning’s haiku

crows calling 
through the morning mists
petals gently fall
