a break in the day
with rain no longer falling
I fit in a walk

WordPress Word Of The Day: Vendetta
standing under clouds
the squirrels and crows arguing
ancient vendettas?
I discovered the WordPress “Word of the Day” challenge a long-time ago. Getting these prompts helped keep my creative side engaged. Then the WordPress team ended that project. Fortunately, others have stepped up to keep that initiative going.
Today’s word is “vendetta“. A challenging word, especially for my focus on haiku. As I watch the crows and squirrels quibble over the breadcrumbs in my backyard, I came up with this one. I hope you enjoy it!
Daedalus dreamt of
traveling far with his son
anguish in sunlight
A Wednesday Evening
Father and child
Gazing upon Christmas lights
Embracing wonder

My Haiku Contribution to the Fandango Word of the Day Challenge
This poem is my contribution to the Fandango Word of the Day Challenge, “outcome”.
in this time of rage
I seek an outcome of hope
living gracefully

An Evening Haiku
through the evening rain
beyond the coming darkness
sun in the future
A Night Haiku
I embrace the night
rain flows from forgotten roofs
safe inside my coat
Another experiment with Adobe Spark.
An Autumn Haiku
a new day begins
underneath my feet I hear
freshly fallen leaves
