Walking in the Sunlight

walking in sunlight
onwards towards dusk and nightfall
the echo of dreams

January 26, 2021

upon the path

moments of life in motion

through winter air

A Moment Of Blue Sky

blue sky peeking through
swallowed quickly by the clouds
whispers of springtime

Saw a moment of blue sky above the trees. I actually wore my sunglasses briefly on today’s walk. Seattle’s winter has reclaimed the sky, though. Yet, rest assured, spring approaches.

upon this roadside
while walking in the sunlight
the motion of life

A Walk In The Woods

A walk in the woods

a winter walk
calmness amongst the trees
crows chattering

A Walk Along The Waterfront

through fading sunlight

walk along the waterfront

filled with memories

Most of my life orbited the Edmonds waterfront, just north of Seattle. My grandparents lived here. So many memories of walking with my grandfather here, sometimes riding the ferry. He loved talking with everyone, hearing their stories. His gift of listening appreciated.

Walking at Night: a Haiku

feet upon pavement
headlights move through the darkness
facelessly pass by

Walking last night, stepping over and around puddles, remembering so many other nights. An element of this Seattle life.

Haiku: December 9, 2020


amidst the daylight
the sky holding my gaze
the rain speaks loudly

A Rainy Afternoon Walk

walking through the mist
rain-soaked clothes cooling my skin
memories of sun

Walking Through The Leaves

I walk through the leaves
feeling the wind in my hair
the jays cheer for sun
