A Rainy Pacific Northwest Day
Standing in the rain
The city has not woken
With my feet moving
A Friday Night Haiku
Friends are beautiful
Easy as riding a bike
Graceful connection
I hopped into Canva looking for inspiration, and found this template. Bicycles delight me, and friends are wondrous. The haiku felt pretty natural with all those pieces coming together.
Autumn’s Approach: Tonight’s #Haiku

A Walk In Lynnwood: Tonight’s Haiku
Walking in this park
Amidst these blooms of heather
Preparing for rain

Hand held in the night
Comforting in the darkness
As autumn approaches

Trees bursting with blooms
Blossom petals slowly fall
Seasons still changing
A Windy Night Calms
Now in night’s darkness
The air has become silent
Peacefulness reclaimed
It’s now calm as the wrong storm has passed through Seattle. Hope all you Seattle area folks got through relatively unscathed. Sure seems a bit of a mess right now.
