“Quest”
For gold or glory,
the next adventure starts with
initiative check.

Haiku Sunday – Barn
“Barn”
Red painted building
where horses’ hooves once stomped, now
filled with dancing shoes.

Haiku Sunday – Crash
“Crash”
A week of downtime,
the mental reset. And now,
I’ve run out of time.

Haiku Friday – Treasure
“Treasure”
Specks of sunlight glint,
like gems scattered in the sand,
dust catching the eye.

Traveler’s Haiku – Carried
“Carried”
Like a speck of foam
bobbing between salty swells
to land somewhere new.

Haiku Sunday – Unwind
“Unwind”
Stresses numbed in waves,
falling away like sand grains,
washed out on the tide.

Haiku Monday – One 2
“One 2”
…A time so finite,
excitement, nostalgia, both.
Hold on — not too tight.

Haiku Sunday – One
“One”
Looking through snapshots,
you’ve changed in so short a time.
A one-year lifetime…

Haiku Sunday – Rehoboth
“Rehoboth”
Waves boom against sand.
Sea salt sprayed into his eyes,
open in wonder.
We had a nice weekend in Cape Henlopen and Rehoboth, DE with my mom, step-dad, and sister. Nugget got his feet wet in the ocean for the first time, and he seemed mesmerized by the waves. I can watch the waves crashing on the beach for hours on end. Maybe he will share my love of the ocean.

Haiku Sunday – Chicago
“Chicago”
Tunnels and bridges
hidden among skyscrapers,
leading to the shore.
