whispering of blue
This is the second set of haiku from my daily practice started January 1st, 2021. The previous set is here. This practice has brought more awareness throughout my days of the poetic beauty that surrounds me. Enjoy!

paths beneath my feet
nodes in the past and future
graphs of my being

crow grabs the sunlight
warmth catching the top branches
black feathers at dusk
faint little circle
partially obscured by sky
branches reach, yearning

early morning song
vibrato pierces the morn
birds rouse the whole earth

tip top, fir tree crow
claim the branch, caw to below
announce the sunset
images within
vivid inner gratitude
a place to gather

twisted growth, out, up
holding sky with tangled limbs
silhouette white oak

look up — perspective
cedars converge together
whispering of blue
beauty in my mind
look inwards with boundlessness
uncountable, be

ribbons of fungus
gossamer laced water beads
life’s intricacies
modest are the trees
moss draping over branches
hidden is the wood
splashing in pure joy
immersing in the moment
in the now of life
three generations
together, watching the birds
quiet etched in time

black, soft, powder stick
the raw transforms to beauty
charcoal to paper
probability
crows checking under each leaf
p of finding nuts

here, nested circles
ripples from raindrops expand
glitches in water

the various V’s
configurations of flight
absolute values

yellow-rumped warbler
flit, fly, jump, play — pierce the gray
harbinger of spring

together we play
such precious time in this life
learning quarantunes
