Facing Forward
in the light of dawn
this bitter bite of winter
balancing with grace
The winter air has a substantive bite. Our weather reports hinted at snow, January marching into February. Yet, even in this time of cold, of darkness, flowers grace life with reminders that spring approaches.
calming sunlight
graceful arc through the trees
hope arrives before spring
upon this roadside
while walking in the sunlight
the motion of life
under the starlight
a momentary pause
the city grinds on
Nights in the city have a magic to them, don’t they?
a pause in the rain
I head outside to walk
opportunities
Life in Seattle often means adjusting plans in response to the rain. The photo in the featured image is one I took recently, font is Spectral.
a pause in the rain
signs of winter around me
motion of my feet
under damp branches
swaying underneath the breeze
stump returns to earth
sunset in Edmonds
cold wind blowing from the west
brilliant colors sing
morning darkness
unwanted wakefulness;
listening to the rain
raindrops sing
a melancholy tune
my tea cup cools
