A Trip To Whidbey Island: A Haiku
A morning journey
Off to the nearby island
With people I love
Spent the morning over in Whidbey Island watching a cross country regional competition. I’ve known many of these kids their whole lives, so there a certain poignancy.
To live where my grandparents lived
I live amongst ghosts
My grandparent’s memories
Amidst these very trees
I walk the same streets my grandparents did. It fills me with connection to this place. Time become more fluid.
Grandmother
I’m nearby
This place she lived
LIVED!
So very long ago
In this early morn
With wind moving
Trees
Her voice whispers
Love songs to this
Child
This Painful Evening
Over fifty-years
Living on this
Spinning rock
Yet moments come
When, still,
That powerless
Little boy
Rises
Alone
An evening with friends
Spent the evening with friends enjoying Mountlake Terrace’s Tour de Terrace parade. A lovely evening with friends I’ve know for a while and some I just met tonight. What a wonderful way to spend time.
Fathers Day
Fatherhood’s delights
Youth doing amazing things
Such satisfaction
Yesterday’s Party
A child-filled yard
Chaos of unbridled joy
Delight fills the air
My Son’s Path Diverged From Mine
My son’s path diverged
Both sadness at these changes
And proud contentment
