Sunday Flower

Rose bud along the waterfront

slowly opening
sunlight hidden by the clouds
such gentle motion

Evening Haiku

This evening’s haiku
between the rain squalls 
sunlight mellowed by the clouds
petals unfurling

Morning Dew

Blossoms
barefoot through the grass
with the dew cooling my toes
breeze through the blossoms

A Modern Dilemma

modern dilemma 
I see all my hopes and dreams
behind the paywall

A little mediation on modern life and media.

Raindrops on petals

Raindrops on petals

morning calmness 
the rain gently falling
life's graceful moments

Summer heat has been running strong this week. Today was a respite. 20 degrees cooler than yesterday with a gentle rain. A nice bit of relief.

I took this photo just outside of my office this morning. It seemed perfect. I enjoyed the moment, at least.

I hope your day went well. I know life’s pretty miserable for this of you on the East Coast. May the smoke clear quickly for you all.

Cherry Blossoms In The Sunlight


through fading sunlight
dusk moves through cherry blossoms
now petals falling

Descending Sunlight


the grace of the sun 
as it descends through the leaves
greeted by flowers

A morning meditation on fear

A morning poem

	my fears whisper 
just below the birdsong
through gritted teeth

A poetic meditation from this morning. I’m up earlier than I’d planned, with a racing mind. Seeking to make world practical and free of risks. A boring life that would be methinks.

Sunlit Flowers

Flowers in sunlight

reaching for the sky
to feed upon the sunlight
soon the petals fall

Good Morning, Everyone

tell me what it is
that brings joy into your life?
fill your days with that

May your day fill you with delight and joy.
