A Summer’s Night

standing in sunlight
as I’m moving through summer
the breeze bearing life

Tuesday Meditation

this morning sunlight

a new day bringing its grace

go seek out beauty

Summer’s Excesses

​summer’s excesses

Helios’ angry glare

I await night’s grace

Tonight’s Haiku: July 26, 2020

glorious sunlight
captured in the greenery
delights of summer

A good day with friends, time in the sunlight, absorbing the life-giving rays. Refreshing my soul during the trials of this pandemic. Life is good.

A Thursday Morning Haiku 

early morning

small birds converse

time for tea

Early morning, no one else awake. I sip tea and listen to the birds sing. 

For this poem and image I used the app “InstaQuote” on my Kindle Fire. I like the paper background and the font choices. It’s my preferred app on my Kindle since there’s no Canva app. 

Often with my haiku I seek a minimalist, handwritten ascetic. For me, that captures the essence and history of haiku. 

A Good Night Haiku

A summer’s evening haiku

through the summer’s sun

life drips down upon the earth

bees sing merrily

Early Morning #Haiku, July 20, 2020

in the morning air

humanity is silent

I hear the birds sing

July is marching past. August approaches quickly. I doubt I’ll be ready, but the universe doesn’t care. Always forward motion, I do my best to prepare. 

Haiku, July 19, 2020

the well lit blue sky
as summer’s glory descends
birds sing from the trees

Friday Morning Haiku

morning glory

graceful vines

rainy summer morn

Tuesday Morning Haiku

Several violets
Flowers in a garden

violet vibrance 

boldness of life shining forth

forgotten too soon
