[saturday]

the light
climbs the fir tree —
bends in the wind

whoosh
three birds zip by —
a jet trail

a gust
of wind — suddenly
a pigeon

disappearing...
a wisp of cloud absorbs —
the blue sky

shadows
shake — the wind in
the vines

[friday]

the colour
right before it turns blue —
this sky

the horizon
fades into the clouds —
geese fly

at the park
she misses the trees and birds
phone zombie

the flowers
not in my garden —
walking home

sparrow
drops down to the fountain —
gurgles

the cat
perks up pops
a magpie

[thursday]

the shade
carries a hint of fall —
passes by the firs

without
seeing it:
caw! caw!

the sky clears
and she smiles —
coneflower

the vines
their leaf shadows in —
8-bit

the sun
opens widely —
my arms

[wednesday rains]

in the rain
a magpie flaps —
the grey sky

above
the mist, a hawk
descends

the rain
drizzles down the fence —
a squirrel

straining,
the gulls cross the sky —
heavy and grey

the cat
at the door, vigilant —
his meeting

[sunday]

he opens
his hand for a sparrow —
empty

the sun
floods in the window —
his paints and brushes

mostly
naked in the sun —
he reads, he naps

it can't help
but sing along with the birds —
daddy long legs

the water
drips glow the colour
of summer

[thursday morning]

the poem
of crows croaking echoes —
untranslated

double helix
the fountain trickles two tales —
at once

it folds
its paper head right back —
chirp! a sparrow

today
the same day but different —
the tall grass

the sun
dishes out more —
alliums

[wednesday morning]

before
the traffic... and the birds —
water sounds

on top
of each tree, a magpie —
and smoke

a starling
writes verse across the sky —
lights up

the sound
of a magpie flutters —
from tree to tree

the vines
flow across the fence —
a squirrel

waking…

Sacred Peak — Sat, 06 Jul 2024 19:08:10 GMT

waking
as long as i can hold
this cup

of sun reflects this

daddy
long legs across my leg
still

why . . see it this way

time flows
the song echoes back
to here

seeing a

trickle
the fountain sings through
a robin

[saturday stuff]

tracing
graphite over a flower —
over there

so many
come out of this pen
déjà-vu

chive flowers
they lasted 'til they are
now empty

in the window
a rubber tree catches
the sundial

the scent of
geranium overtakes —
bike revs

[saturday cats and sunrise]

darker, a bit
the morning fills in —
calendar

cat's paw
scratching around the page —
the pen tries

kiwi vines...
tracing their roots under —
the line in pen

grey cat
recounts a story
in no words

back and forth
on the lap, off the lap —
sun/moon cycle

hovering
over a dahlia —
helicopter

writing...
to remember what happens —
yesterday

inside
she catches a bug —
through the glass

—fi-ch— robin
takes a drink from the fountain —
finch alights

gentle
the birds sing right through
the cars

[friday's sky!]

Sacred Peak — Fri, 05 Jul 2024 15:41:05 GMT

[friday's sky!]

across the hill
prairie grass waves crash
on aspens

rising sun
pushes the shadows along —
lawnmower

the blue
fills in around the clouds —
dissolve

blue
the space between leaves
winks

robin's egg
the sky cracks open —
all blue

[friday]

not quite blue
dawn's moment arrives,
chirp!

fir tree
the old low branch hangs below —
dog height

missing
complaining about the rain —
soaks in

orange clouds
the sun burns off
sunrise

magpies
chase a squirrel digs —
the sun up

[thursday... ]

on the light
as I leave the house —
a magpie

old couple
and iPads out discussing —
the kids

the smell
of prairie and peonies —
over cars

the birds
and the construction —
background

on a rock
coming back home to —
a magpie

[thursday again]

the pen
writes more than i need —
this close

leaning
laden with pollen —
a bee

outside
even the tall plain grass —
beautiful

hearing
the birds sing anyway —
headset on

sitting
beside a drawing —
woman draws

[thursday happens]

fluffy
clouds float across
a —b-tt-r— skylight

doodles
surrounding the words in —
haiku

down hill
his footsteps erase
a sutra

Mount Fuji
and its valley —
in bloom

morning walk
writing haiku to music —
forgetting

Sacred Peak — Thu, 04 Jul 2024 12:25:50 GMT

[thursday blows in]

a wave
in the teacup stirs up —
sunrise

two big firs
creak, rustle and beckon —
the sky

prairie gull
across the wide sky it surfs —
without waves

burnet
two flowers rush ahead —
impulsive

bloodwort
its leaves shudder in the breeze
Pat's ghost

[wednesday's end]

grey sky
grey cityscape absorbs
"Red's Diner"

two sparrows
scrounge... 'til... the... last... moment —
a truck

sunk down
with wind, a fern exhales —
a drop

light drizzle
up the hill three flickers
same flickers?

creak
an old fir tree bends...
the light

picks up a book
leaping up and purring —
puts down a book

this year...
scarf and jacket in July
...next year

pine tree
from tip to earth it pokes
needles

garbage truck
at each house, it picks up —
last week's buys

(the slogan)
"keep it up every drop counts"
(the rain)

[eyes see hands do]

Sacred Peak — Wed, 03 Jul 2024 13:52:51 GMT

[eyes see hands do]

old elm
a magpie weaves a globe
spins the days

eyes see
hands do

searching
here and there bushy tail digs
memories

eyes see
hands do

rising up
sun wakes the birds sing it
rising up

eyes see
hands do

in a line
ants sip peonies into
flowers

eyes see
hands do

seeking
she twists, turns, and purrs
me

eyes see
hands do

down down
his cheek, a sole tear runs
just so...
