Resisting the night

Darkness holds its own 

Rest is deceptively hard 

The street-light’s ally  

A Sunday Night Haiku

Another Sunday
The day’s faded to darkness
Summer’s heat waning

A Summer’s Evening

Sunlight has vanished

The summer night’s heat disturbs

My dream’s stay silent

A Haiku For A Summer’s Evening

The day’s heat lingers
Sunlight blocked by the mountains
Summer’s kind mercies

It was a warm one today. Especially by Seattle standards. Got some walking in, a little shopping, farmers market time, chatting friends…all things that build connection and community.

The Streetlight

Looking through the dark 

Bugs orbiting a street light 

Buzzing electrons 

Tonight’s Haiku: Looking Skyward

As I glance skyward

Into this summer evening

Moving towards nightfall

A summer night

Now that it is night 

With clouds vanquished far away

Summertime feels here

Awake Too Early

My relentless mind 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>In perpetual motion 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Sleeping’s a challenge 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Awake against my will

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Dreaming of dreaming 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Longing for slumber 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>The machinery of my mind 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Psychological cogs churn and spin 

<

p style=”font-family:"”>Whirring hum of my soul 

The Night Moves Now

​The night moving now

It slides up, embracing me

A piano plays 

A haiku From My Evening Walk

With the sun’s motion
And the light starting to fade
Night’s calmness coming
