My goal is to write one haiku per day this year, starting on the day before the inauguration. It is meant to be both inspiration and distraction. We’ll see how long it lasts.

Yet another storm?

The novelty’s wearing off.

Such uncertain times.

Sunshine after rain

Brightens the yard and the day

###

The young witch hazel

Has managed just one flower -

At least it’s a start!

###

The first daffodils

Dance on the hillside as they

Soak up the sun

Leaves make the compost.

Compost turns itself to dirt.

Dirt conjures beauty.
