haibun, haiku, july, summer

While at Benewah lake, I couldn’t help but to think of the relationship between the sky and water. The point where they meet is such a thin slice of space, yet abundant with activity.

Morning:

Color photograph of pine trees, blurred in the light ripples of water, at the top a western grebe floats by leaving a thin white wake.

below contrails/in the sky/a western grebe

Afternoon:

Photograph of a pond lily in bloom surrounded by patches of blue sky reflected in water and green leaves.

a patch/in the blue sky/spatterdock!

Evening:

Color photograph of the sunset reflected in the waters of a lake. Grass is poke through the sky and the golden clouds. In the distance, a reflection of the lake under an abandoned train trestle.

light/from a distant shore/an abandoned trestle

haiku, july, summer

Photograph looking down a dirt road towards the gate. Beyond the gate, a young Buck stares down a road where in the distance approaching is a cement truck and beyond that a bus making a turn the road is surrounded by green leaves, telephone poles, wires, and mailboxes.

Between the two/a whisper in the breeze/on an empty road

haiku, july, summer

Color photograph of a blue heron standing in the shallows of a pond with its beak open. Reflected in the pond are the Palouse summer fields and a blue sky, the distortion resembling a painting.

Plein air!/a stroke across the canvas/the blue Heron’s call
