Rainy Night Haiku

rainy night haiku

rainfall in the dark 
autumnal scents descending
windchime's gentle tone

Sunset Haiku

Sunset in Edmonds

summer sunsets
gently across the mountains
gracefully cooling air

Today’s Haiku Challenge: Waves


sunset through the waves
sunlight sparkles upon the surf
fading into night

On Twitter, er, X, the user @Bleu_Owl posts a daily prompt “Haiku Challenge”. Today’s prompt is “wave”. The above is my contribution. I hope you enjoy it!

An Animated Haiku

Today’s haiku video was created with Canva, a powerful freemium design tool. If you’re not familiar with it, I highly recommend it. The free version has plenty of functionality, and the premium versions are amazing without the high costs of Adobe.

FWOC: Maximum

A blogger I follow, WoollyMuses, posted his contribution to Fandango’s One Word Challenge: Maximum. So, I thought I’d add to that.

Manzanita Sunset
the grace of daylight 
sunlight moves across the sky
onwards to the west

The photo above is one I took in Manzanita, Oregon a few days ago. Shot with my Samsung S22.

Grace of Sunlight

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

Manzanita Sunset

Manzanita Sunset

as the sun descends 
day drifting to memory
the birds still singing

Rain

as the water beads
flowing across the petals
rains drift westward
