Sunlight through the rain

breaking through the rain
sunlight’s grace moves through the trees
birds dance on the wind

Early Spring

springtime is nearing
flowers eating the sunshine
blown by the cool breeze

Cherry Blossoms

ah, cherry blossoms!
all the beauty of springtime
encapsulated

I try to walk every day. During those walks, I seek out signs of the seasons, of change, of life’s patterns. Lately, I’ve searched for signs of spring. Crocuses, daffodils, lilies, and now cherry blossoms.

First day of spring

this first day of spring

amidst the rain and cool wind

under the firs’ grace

Temperamental Weather

walking in the rain
which soon becomes a strong wind
and then it’s sunshine

Along the Water

Along the water: a haiku

along the water
under the sun, between trains
beside calm waters


I just finished up winter quarter, so I was able to spend the day as I wished. Today’s the projected last day of sun for a while, so I opted for a waterside walk today. Edmonds is one of my favorite places, so off I went.

Signs of Spring

stand under the sun

and the regalness of trees

caressing the sky


Signs of spring grow. Blossoms forming on trees, daffodils upright, crocuses tall. Soon the cherry trees will regale us with their yearly show. One all to brief, thus we must take the time to watch.

Dancing with Sunlight

dancing with sunlight

moving across western skies

the motion of spring

Sunlight’s Travels

sunlight’s travels

an amazing journey

born from a star

Happy Saturday my friends.

Underneath Sunlight


underneath sunlight
springtime’s grace flows through the firs
still need my jacket


Today’s sunlight was very welcome. I’ve been fighting some kind of “bug” since Tuesday night. The worst was Wednesday, but I’m still lacking energy. I was able to get a walk in this after, and get plenty of school stuff done, but I’m now wiped out. I expect to be near 100% by tomorrow, though.
