Good morning! My mind cleared some when I crossed paths with this little one on my morning walk. I wonder what he was thinking. #nature #WhiteSquirrel #photography
White squirrel stand on the side of a hill looking at the camera... or I should say looking at me. Small yellow flowers pepper the ground between us.

soft twilight welcomes marriage of dusk and low tide wide open shoreline #DailyHaikuPrompt  #haiku #photography Dusk Low Tide Oak Island, N.C. 2022
Sunset on Oak Island, N.C. 2022. This wide beach scene has posts to an old fence in the foreground, a wide beach, and ocean stretching to a beautiful orange sunset. Highlights of the view are how the image angles, fence, beach, water and ends with a straight orange line where water meets the bright orange sky and the sun is a small ball about to plop into the water.

If you are intrigued by senryu and haiku, check out Sean Wright’s Fallen Petals series. I’m honored to have a senryu selected this week for commentary. Always a lovely selection of poems. Check out Sean’s writing and his poetry as well. @sbwrightpoet.bsky.social #haiku #senryu

This #haiku describes something that really happened a few years ago. One Easter morning, we woke to see that a very tall pine tree had fallen across the end of the driveway. As my eyes focused, I realized the smell of Xmas trees filled the air. We were blocked in, but house, cars spared. #evergreen

I started my PhD program with an eight week old at home, sole income being my doctoral stipend, in a history program, in Knoxville, TN. And every month we got a new book to read to my son, free, mailed to us, so my kid, my kids, grew up in rooms full of books even when I had no money. That's Dolly.
