Lucid: A Haiku

May 25, 2021May 25, 2021 Carl Setzer
Haiku

Here’s my contribution to today’s FOWC (Fandango’s One-Word Challenge): lucid. In keeping with my current blogging focus of haiku, here you go:

as dawn’s light rises
my dreams brilliantly lucid
fading as I wake

Snoozing Through Winter

April 30, 2021 Carl Setzer5 Comments
Awakening

snoozing through winter
slowly awakening
morning’s gentle rain


Today’s “Word of the Day Challenge” is Snooze. These words came while watching rhododendron blooms slowly come to life this week.

From My Garden

From the Garden

upon the spring breeze
the delight of butterflies
and soon they will fade

Signs of Spring

March 17, 2021 Carl Setzer

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.

Tuesday Evening Haiku

March 3, 2021 Carl Setzer3 Comments

seeking signs of spring

renewed life begins to bud

with rain less bitter

On today’s walk I focused on searching for signs of spring. Not many yet, but I found these. I expect that the signs will grow via each passing day. C
