I really appreciate that Fandango picked up the theme of Word of the Day challenges. Today’s word is “finish”.
The heat of summer
I long for it to finish.
I do love autumn

Summer’s Song
summer’s song
upon the lips of roses
grace of sunlight
Another photo taken on my evening pandemic walks. Getting outside, especially during the summer months feels good.

sunlight climbing down
from the mountains to the west
the bees contented
Saturday Morning, August 1
cool air
I rejoice
summer calmed
A Saturday Morning Haiku
dawn hidden by clouds
crow’s vociferous debate
I return to sleep
Crows created quite a ruckus this morning. A multitude gathered, some kind of mass debate. Congress arguing tax cuts. They abruptly dissolve. My mind drifts back to dreams.

walking in sunlight life’s
beauty singing to me
the scent of the shore
Another day in the summer sun. Most of it spent in front of my computer. More visual basic into my skull. I try to focus deeply, for coding is a key part of my future.
Exercise and health are other parts. Ones I’ve neglected, sadly. I’m slowly clawing that back. Slowly.
Walked in the early afternoon sun. After a few hours of exploring code, went down to Edmonds to run a few errands then go for a short walk. Always a happy thing for me, downtown Edmonds.
I hope you find your bliss and tranquility these fine summer days.
A Haiku By The Shore
walking near the shore
the scent of salt air delights
flowers worship sun

night descends
streetlights flicker awake
stars above the trees
Another summer night in Seattle. The end of a productive day. I’m happy with things. Glad it’s cooler than earlier this week. 90F is not agreeable with me any more. Not sure it was with the beach boy from the Philippines I was all those years ago.
My focus right now: Visual Basic programming. It’s been years, and I’m enjoying the reboot. I’m also studying command line interaction with Windows, and second quarter graphic design.
Graphic design has been a challenge this summer. Compressed timelines often bring lower quality work. This does help with the perfectionism. I hate having to submit “good enough”. Yet it’s good. Positive comments from my instructor and fellow students reinforce that.
How’s your summer going?
