Haiku

a chill in the air
tiny white flakes blowing by
winter is upon us
(October 2002)

snow softly falling
beauty is everywhere
why not be hopeful?

northern sky glows red
solar flares bombard the earth
celestial fireworks

snow on the crocus
the Palouse in Spring is strange
does it make God laugh?
(April 2003)

ocean waves crashing
the joy of dolphins leaping
sunrise at the beach
(July 2002)

five feet from the edge
a mile down to the bottom
grand is this canyon
(July 2002)

robins in the snow
spring cannot be far away
we are ready now
(March 4, 2004)
