a pause in the rain
I head outside to walk

Life in Seattle often means adjusting plans in response to the rain. The photo in the featured image is one I took recently, font is Spectral.
haiku & photography
under damp branches
swaying underneath the breeze
stump returns to earth
morning darkness
unwanted wakefulness;
listening to the rain
raindrops sing
a melancholy tune
my tea cup cools
always in a rush –
sunlight drifts across the trees
raindrops upon roofs
Wrote this one early this morning as part of Baffled’s Haiku Challenge (on Twitter). I appreciate his daily challenges, forcing me to stretch my mind. Also, these haiku are a great way to keep my Adobe skills sharp. I create most of my posts right now with Adobe Spark.
Today’s desire: capture the feeling of a cold, dark, winter’s morning in Seattle. Today was dreary and damp, hence the focus. I opted for the Playfair font. A unique font, with understated serifs.
walking through the mist
rain-soaked clothes cooling my skin
memories of sun
Moving through the leaves
As the rain begins to fall
These autumnal strolls
Though I got drenched, I did get a poem out of it.
Morning arrives
Sunlight ascending
Through autumn mists
