the more I dig deep

frustration builds, anger grows

why it’s called crab grass

Haiku Moment: hidden

mere feet from busy,

yet vibrant abundant life

what else hides unseen?

Haiku Moment: disturbed

enjoying nibbles

but earthbound human disturbs

spring morning delight

Haiku Moment: no typing allowed

work beckons fingers

but magnetic eyes lock on,

no typing allowed

Haiku Moment: spring fashion

cotton candy fluff

buzzy busy bees adorn

pink tree spring fashion

Haiku Moment: gone

just last week I saw

beauty stretching from chaos

today empty holes

free blooms for taking

but leaving crushed leaves and trash

my eyes in despair

gone by Angie Quantrell

Yakima Valley

See the former beauty here.

Haiku Moment: hope

from dark and frigid

unseen grasps for blue and gold

Haiku Moment: sentry

pause, observe, alert!
