4 September 2026 (engine pulse)

engine pulse . . .

the seiners’ lights

burning through fog

30 October 2025 (bayside birthday)

bayside birthday red rock crabs crowd the trap

1 October 2025 (distant fishing boat)

distant fishing boat . . .

the green within

a sunlit wave

Bonus haiku by my friend Bryan:

fallout

glowing

warblers

5 July 2024 (roses wet with fog)

roses wet with fog . . .

a fishing boat rumbles

out of the harbor

24 April 2024 (pink moon)

pink moon rising . . .

the first fried smelt

straight from the pan

24 May 2023 (narrow way)

the narrow path

to the best trout hole . . .

marsh marigolds

19 January 2023 (calm before)

calm before the storm

the voices of fishermen

carry to shore

2 May 2022 (river glare)

river glare . . .

he ties a new leader

onto his line

21 September 2021 (harvest moon)

harvest moon

the lights of tuna boats

wait offshore

26 April 2021 (fish)

fish moon

the flick and shine

of a released trout

28 March 2021 (rainbow)

offering the rainbow

back to the stream

wild iris
