I’ve now been working on this project for ten weeks! August 14-17 were pictures taken on my trip to Maine to be there for my cousin’s wedding. I couldn’t resist adding photos from the flights. The 16th was taken from my Aunt’s back porch- the same Aunt that suggested I begin adding photos to go along with these little poems. I love all my family and friends.
I’m trying to make my videos shorter and more to the point, while still providing enough information to let a viewer know what I’m doing. A week may be going by between posts for me, but for posterity, the intros and outros may become wearisome if they’re watching these back to back.
I’ve thought about the differences between recording indoors and recording outdoors. Outdoors is full of distracting noised but also captures the moment in time. Cicadas in August! I will not be doing it outdoors during the winter. I figure I’ll do what I can, when I can.
Here are seven fresh pieces, ending with August 10th and the 70th haiku!
The Haiku:
August 14th #64/365
View from the air:
City along the river
Green trees, blue water.
August 15th #65/365
A calm lake in Maine
Where birds sing of these stories:
Water leaf and sky
August 16th #66/365
The treeline at dusk
Launchpad for ravenous bats
Mosquitoes beware.
August 17th #67/365
Over-encumbered
To rain on New York City,
Clouds drop their burdens.
August 18th #68/365
Seated heavily,
An abandoned metal gate
guards a forest path.
August 19th #69/365
The hoods of warm cars.
Enjoying life’s small pleasures-
The tabby cat, Thor.
August 20th #70/365
Quickly rush outdoors
Black helicopter convoy
Buzzing the blue sky.
Thanks for reading. See you next week.
