Raindrops on Petals

raindrops on petals
the bees now seeking shelter
spots on my glasses

Haiku Response: May 20, 2020

This photo called to me for a haiku, and I was delighted to oblige.

the sun slips below
warm blazing orange blankets
when will the stars dance?

Wednesday Morning Haiku

in this morning calm

do not rush; embrace the calm

near the feasting bees

Ah, the beauty of mornings. No one else awake, the sun rising, hidden by trees and clouds. A perfect Seattle morning…for me, at least. 

Tonight’s Haiku: Thursday, May 7, 2020

the glories of spring

flowers singing with boldness

swallows harmonize

Haiku: May 6, 2020

though the rain has stopped
the ominous clouds stare down
birds oblivious

Tonight’s Haiku: May 3, 2020

WITHIN THIS COLD RAIN
DROPLETS DIVING OFF FLOWERS
THE CROW LAUGHS WITH ME

Haiku, Monday Morning, April 27, 2020

This bouquet of spring

A celebration of life

Sunlight through the trees

Can you believe that this is the last Monday in April? May first is Friday! I noticed that the cherry blossoms are already starting to be shed, the last trees now filled with blossoms. Spring now fully present, at least in Seattle. 

I hope this finds you safe and well. 

Tonight’s Haiku: April 26, 2020

as night has fallen

the cool rain starts falling

trees move in the breeze

A reasonably pleasant spring day, high clouds and lacking in rain. Perhaps a bit muggy as the air was still. As the sun set, the breeze picked up. Once night fell. The rain started. Now, this is Seattle. So, not a downpour, but the well known Seattle drip.

I remained indoors most of the day. Got out for a roughly one hour walk, then grabbed dinner at the nearby 5 Guys. And then back to quarantine.

How’s it going where you are?

Rain Begins To Fall: A Haiku

the clouds get darker
rain starts to fall on my face
and birds quiet now

A Friday Morning Haiku

It’s a quiet, grey morning here in Seattle. Journaling to start day, then to my desk to get done work done. How’s your quarantined life going?
