Seattle’s famous gumball

Well worn paving stones

Seattle’s Rain Returns


Though late

I am not sleepy

I sit here, listening

Rain falls upon my roof

Forever, it seems, 

I’ve loved that sound

Walking In Seattle

Those evenings at dusk
Fashionable, Seattle style
Nights in my city

Seattle’s Rain Has Returned

Rain has returned
It feels more like Seattle
The one of my memory



So much of my life has been spent in the presence of Seattle’s rain. Though it chills my skin, it warms my heart.

Seattle’s Smoky Air

The smoke will soon clear
And autumn’s blessing will come
Scrubbing the air clean

Seattle’s Smoky Air

Smoke and haze return

Our murky air unpleasant

Awaiting a good rain

#Seattle’s Bumbershoot is this weekend

Seattle’s weekend

Music will be the center

Bumbershoot’s glories


One of my region’s iconic events Bumbershoot. An amazing streets and music festival. And, yes, is named after the German word for umbrella. Seattle’s love for irony.  

As Fall Approaches

Being from Seattle

I look forward to the fall

Cool air returning 

A Gem Of Sap

This sparkling gem Summer’s glory is fading Moments of sunlight

The Changing Season 

​Boys training
Football season nears
Air cooler this morn
And wet fog upon glass
Autumn’s inevitability
Soon, so soon
