Bees on the flower, tonight’s Haiku

The grace of daylight
From the sky across the leaves
This dance of the bees

Walking in the evening light, a bee moves from petal to petal. Summer moves forward.

Summer’s Flowers

Sunlight between rains
And entertaining the bees
Watching the clouds pass

Walked in Port Townsend today. This was song the Larry Scott tail. I was experimenting with some of the camera’s presets and built in functions.

Keep Breathing

​Keep breathing deeply

Listen to the birds singing

Sunlight upon trees


Life’s tensions overwhelm at times. Remember to stop, focus on breathing deeply,controlled. Today, while doing this, the bird’s singing became vibrant. It’s what’s really important in life. 

The Heat of Summer

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

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.
