And now it’s morning
Awakened and seeing rain
Feeling very grateful
Tag: Seattle
Seattle’s Skies
Misty clouds drifting
Stretched by fir and cedar boughs
Grasping longingly
A cloudy morn
Clouds delight me so
Tranquility flowing forth
Dew drops glistening
Sunlight
Sunlight upon skin
Driving me to the outdoors
Promise of motion
A Seattle Day
Grey clouds against me
Calming my mind and soul
Strange tranquility
Morning Delights
I love the mists
Drifting through
Fir boughs, stretched
Cotton-like by green
Needle fingers,
Every second
Changing shape,
Gray clouds of
Early morning
Shadowy contrasts
Blending variations
Of rich, deep greens
Against the icy
Gray-blue sky
Winter
Cold wetness seeps in.
Clothing’s heaviness intense.
Seattle’s winter.
November’s Grace
Glancing upwards now,
A graying sky calming me.
Rain speckles my lens.
Winter rain
Northwest winter rains
Calming my mind deep within
Strange comforts I find
Winter Observations
Over the winter I noticed the congregation of crows off around 405
near the Beardslee exit in Bothell. Masses of them, swarming, much
like starlings, without the elegance. As the weather has warmed up,
this feathered city has dissipated.
Trees have been in bloom for quite some time. This, too, is a delight.
Most all trees are at least in bud, the majority laden with blossoms.
A few stragglers remain. I noticed bees a few weeks back. True honey
bees. And I will not mistake a hornet for a bee.
Our weather has embraced a Spring mania. Rain, followed by sleet,
fading to hail, with some snow for good measure. Intermixed with
random bursts of sunshine. Life in the Northwest under the shadow of
the covergence zone.
