Under the Starlight

January 14, 2021 Carl Setzer3 Comments

under the starlight

a momentary pause

the city grinds on

Nights in the city have a magic to them, don’t they?

Space Dance: A Haiku

August 16, 2020 Carl Setzer4 Comments

beyond the sky’s edge
light dances in the darkness
such graceful motion


The photo is from NASA’s Hubble telescope. I fell in love with all things space as a young boy watching the lunar landing. It seemed natural to pen this haiku as I looked upon this image.

songbirds still chatter

A #Haiku for your Sunday morningĀ

I’m up before dawn 

Light coming through my window 

I just need some tea 
I hope your Sunday recharges your soul, giving you energy and drive as we face a new week.

Sunlight on the clouds

Silence dominates the air

The firs are aglow
