Monday morning haiku

dawn upon the clouds
hints of red within the leaves
gentle morning mists

A haiku response to today’s Word of the Day Challenge

Today’s word is “overdue”. Not a very poetic word, is it?


a day with light rain
giving overdue relief 
birds gracing my day

A Dark Sky Haiku

Dark Sky
under sunlight's edge
gazing upwards at the clouds
I have everything 

After the Rain

After the Rain
between the rain squalls
I get to walk in the sun
flowers cheer me on

A Break In The Rain

Bee In A Flower
Bee In An Orange Flower


a break in the rain
bees insist on gathering
glorious nectar

This bee was energetic little lady was hard to capture, as she kept bouncing from flower to flower. I am rather proud of this humble shot with my Samsung S9.

Moving Through Sunlight

Spring Flower
moving through sunlight
petals glistening from rain
crows float overhead

Jewels Upon Leaves


after the rainfall
clouds parting for the sunlight
jewels left on the leaves

Sunlight through the rain

breaking through the rain
sunlight’s grace moves through the trees
birds dance on the wind

Temperamental Weather

walking in the rain
which soon becomes a strong wind
and then it’s sunshine

Under the Clouds

Under the Clouds

set under the clouds
my city moves through the rain
while fueled by coffee


A rainy day here, just north of Seattle. One that brings me memories of northwestern Oregon. The winter rains in Astoria where my feet were my main mode of transportation. I guess that came from the heavy weight of the rain drops along with their coldness.
