✨️🌿🌺🦋🌺🌿✨️ hummingbird moth: knowing names by flavor #SenryuSunday #PaintbyWords #EastCoastKin #BloomScrolling

This is a nature photo I took of a hummingbird hawk-moth resting on a lavender princess rhododendron. The moth is facing away with wings fully extended, catching light like stained glass. Antennas are held in a V-pattern, their serrated edges visible. A moss green patch of fuzz trails down its back. Velvety umber bands circle the abdomen. The tail ends in a splay of dark plumes. Lavender-pink blooms beneath the moth blur into the green background bokeh.

I can hear colors, see music, smell emotions, and taste words. This cross-sensory perception is called synesthesia. I was born this way. It took me a long time to realize this condition made me different. And trust me, being different isn’t something most of us want to be. It’s very isolating, especially when extreme pain comes with it. As a child, I described these sensations and people either thought I was trying to be funny, or because I was artistic, I had an overactive imagination. Sometimes I laughed along, finding joy in their amusement, but it also chipped away at my truth. You’d think this would give me an advantage with sense-switching in haiku or senryu. It does not. The cross-sensory that I experience is hard for most people to follow; the leap is too far. When I sense switch in poetry, I have to make-believe that I don’t have synesthesia for it to make sense. The only way I can express my condition through poetry (that isn’t abstract) is to strip sensations down to their bare bones.

For Senryu Sunday and Paint by Words, I wrote my latest senryu to honor synesthesia awareness:

hummingbird moth:
knowing names
by flavor

✨️🕊🌿🍵🪻🍵🌿🕊✨️ forgiveness finds me over the falling cup hydrangeas #SenryuSunday #PaintbyWords #EastCoastKin #BloomScrolling

Nature photography is where I find my calm center. This is a photo I took of cream and blue hydrangeas. The entire frame is clustered with pale blooms, pressing, lifting, and sharing the light with one another.

The language of flowers: Among the many legends of Japan, is the most famous story behind hydrangea symbolism. Ages ago, a powerful emperor chose royal duties over his lover. To apologize for his absence and to express deep affection, he gifted her a bouquet of hydrangeas. To this day, the flower is still given as a sincere gesture of regret and gratitude.

This symbolic meaning inspired my latest senryu:

forgiveness finds me
over the falling cup
hydrangeas

Happy International #Haiku #Poetry Day! Thank you, Haiku Association of Sri Lanka, Palitha Senarathna, Radhika De Silva, and Lanka Siriwardana. You all did a splendid job. Congratulations on your first contest! My gratitude also goes out to the honorable judge, Ravi Kiran, for including my haiku.

‘Whispers of Nature’ First International Haiku Contest 2026

Haiku Association of Sri Lanka

Honourable Mention

beach day
baby’ s first prints
return to sea

Tré – USA

Ravi Kiran's commentary: The crux of this haiku is the second line. Different babies take differently to their first visit to a beach. Some get very excited and others get petrified. Once the feeling settles, babies instinctively explore and are amazed at how they can leave footprints in the wet sands. The last line captures the cyclic nature of life.

✨️♡🌳🌰🌳♡✨️ existence fractures in oak's shade I drop 10,000 hearts #EastCoastKin #ShowHeart #ImageAndVerse #Cassiopeian #Exist #SenryuSunday #senryu #haiku #micropoetry #photography #macro #nationalpoetrymonth #poetrymonth #classicmono

$Here is a black and white nature photo of an acorn split in have, revealing its heart shape inside. The seed half rests in the upper left side, its top slightly tilts left on a fallen log. In the background, textures of cracks and wood chips dip in and out of the bokeh. Fun fact: The average oak produces 2,000 to 10,000 acorns a year. During the tree’s “mast year,” which occurs every 2-5 years to ensure survival, it produces 10,000 acorns. Also known as bumper crops, this massive output helps the seeds escape being eaten. Nature is incredible. I couldn’t help but wonder, what about our output of love? Is more love in our lives the answer to our survival? Focusing on building supportive communities, friendship, and nurturing the land feels right. For us, every year can be a mast year; this realization inspired the latest alliterative senryu from my journal. existence fractures in oak's shade I drop 10,000 hearts$

Here is a macro nature photo I took of a pink-purple lilac cluster with two buds at the mid-upper-left starting to open. Between their four curled petals is a magenta x-shape of brightness. The background is a green bokeh of leaves. Light through the blossoms delicately whispers, "Hi, I'm warm and soft, my sweet perfume will soothe your heavy heart."

✨️⚕️🌸🫐🌸⚕️✨️ crush of black and blueberries the bruises we heal #BlueSkyArtShow #Horizontal #EastCoastKin #Cassiopeian Heal #SenryuSaturday #senryu #haiku #poetry #micropoetry #photography #macro #BloomScrolling #ImageAndVerse

This is a macro nature photo I took of blueberries blooming. A green stem angles in from the upper-right corner and places the blossoms at the mid-left side. There's a cluster of five pink buds in the center and three white bell-shaped blooms surrounding them. In the blue-green background, the bokeh holds another cluster of bright pink buds to the upper-left.

Winter heals many wounds. Some of us think of hibernation as a hindrance, a stifling of progress, or a forced rest. But what happens when we take the time our bodies need to recover? We heal. For those of us with chronic illness, which is not an injury but a state we navigate daily, healing becomes a circle, not a line with a beginning and an end. We all carry these bruises, whether visible or internal, and it's important to acknowledge that we're each doing our best. I wish you all deep healing and comfort. This thought inspired my latest senryu:

crush of black
and blueberries
the bruises we heal

✨️🕊⛩️🏯⛩️🕊✨️ temple warmth e a v e s c h a n t a whirling sutra #ImageAndVerse #EastCoastKin #haiku #俳句 #Poetry #Micropoetry #Photography #tokyo #stunday

I took this photo of the carved eaves on the former Main Hall at the Fukagawa Fudō-dō Temple in Koto, Tokyo, Japan. This was before all the major renovations had been completed. I was there during March to celebrate hanami in honor of my granny, who was from Tokyo. These elegant carvings reflect the traditional Inami style indicative of the late Edo/early Meiji period.

In the lower left, elegant swirls of wooden waves surround a bird with wings spread and one leg out, navigating strong forces. Farther right, another bird is tucking into a curl, downward-facing, and riding the front wave with serene grace. The wood is a mixture of warm red and grey tones; its grain is striped and softly weather-worn. There’s a mid-line crack running the length of the beam overhead. In the lower right corner, shadows mask the inner temple.

My time at Fukagawa Fudō-dō inspired the haiku from my Tokyo journal:

temple warmth
eaves chant
a whirling sutra

✨️🧊🌊🥂🌊🧊✨️ sparkling champlain i sip a string of pearls #EastCoastKin #Stunday #ImageAndVerse #senryu #senryusunday #micropoetry #photography #nature #NaHaiWriMo #classicmono

This is a black and white landscape nature photo I took of Lake Champlain from the shore in Burlington Vermont.

Elegant rays fan over the glimmering lake. Winter sun's bright reflection glows atop the right surface of Champlain and stretches left into a thin line of light. Brooding clouds, the prominent horizon line, and a textured expanse of dark waves all add contrasting layers to the image. It was an effervescent moment that paused time, and inspired my latest senryu:

sparkling champlain
i sip
a string of pearls

Fun fact: Perlage is a wine (champagne) term to describe the continuous stream of small bubbles, often called a string of pearls, that rise inside the drinking glass.

Here is a landscape nature photo I took of a snowy field in the Shenandoah Valley. The field's white triangle of hill meets a wedge of snow-covered trees. A white sky above reflects the snow below. The smoothness of the top and bottom of this image is contrasted by the inky texture of trees severing the scene in half.

As an artist and writer, I see paper everywhere. Negative space makes me want to recreate moments and fill in the blank. Being drawn in by this wintery expanse inspired my latest haiku:

Here is a black and white breakwater photo I took in the Bahamas, off Great Abaco. These man-made structures are designed to mimic the appearance of shoals, but their job is to protect the coast from high-energy waves and storms. The pitted rocks stretch diagonally across the sea, from right to left, like a bridge over calm waves. The sky is strewn with a delicate mixture of clouds; my favorite being the wispy cirrus in the upper right that looks like a fishbone or a feathery arrow. Between the rugged rocks and soft sky, the ocean appears wrinkly, almost silken, leading to a distant line of shore. The tinest sailboat drifts on the right, facing left.

Standing before this clutch of serenity, I couldn’t help but wonder: what stories does each rock hold? Every dip, crack, and dent becomes a word. From all angles, different pages emerge. Yet, all we can read is on the surface. What dwells deeper within or beneath the tides? An ocean of libraries. These thoughts inspired another haiku in my travel journal.

It was a rough day at sea when I took this black and white photo while sailing around El Arco, located on the coast of Cabo San Lucas, where the Pacific meets the Sea of Cortez. The smooth tides of Lovers Beach are on the Cortez side of the arch, and Divorce Beach’s thrashing tides are on the Pacific side. El Arco's jagged dip into the misty tides is accentuated by its open arch. Waves crash through the opening, and its uneven roundness offers a hazy view of what lies beyond: the calm stretch of shore known as Lover's Beach.

El Arco's beautiful formation inspired this haiku in my travel journal:

rough lands end
smooth curves roam
lover's beach

This is a macro nature photo I took of the Hellebore buds in our front yard. I planted them last year, and their displays of hardiness do not disappoint! It’s one of my favorite winter-blooming flowers. Deep forest green leaves rimmed in aubergine and violet, cradle two dark magenta buds. The largest bud faces right. Tipped upward, its outer petals catch light, revealing stomata flecks patterned like an unopened galaxy. The flower and leaves soften into a dark purple and pink background bokeh.

Like many beautiful creatures found in nature, it is important to note that Hellebore is poisonous (it contains glycosides and saponins). I wear gloves while pruning because they’re so feisty.

Hellebore’s tenebrous allure inspired my latest haiku:

mountain creek thaws

In the bare poplar tree outside my window, Eastern Phoebes have been visiting. Ever-so-slowly, light is returning. I took this photo the other day while watching one gently surf the wind on a limb. Its dusky overcoat and creamy underside make this small puff of feathers look like a smoky cloud droplet against the winter green bokeh. From afar, the Phoebe's eyes look beady, but close up they have beautiful copper irises—so bright and full of cleverness. Here in the Blue Ridge Mountains, they symbolize the renewal of good luck and fortune for the year. Their famous fee-bee song is a harbinger of spring.

Here is a black and white photo I took of a forest crow flying over the sunset. A dip in the dark trees frames the towering clouds with soft leafy limbs. At the center, the sky yawns open with brightness, revealing the bird's body and curved wing silhouette in diffused sunlight. A taste of rain on the westerly breeze teased the moment with storm potential. I remember thinking: suns, planets, and moons play the eclipse game. Crows are no different. Little mischievous drops of midnight—loose upon our days. This new haiku is a fallen feather I picked up.

This is a photo I took overlooking St. John’s Trunk Bay—one of my favorite places. In the off season, it becomes so quiet and even more beautiful. Before the trade winds pick up, the breeze feels like a sweet caress mimicked by the tides. The bay cups a blue gradient from clear aquamarine to deep indigo. Tropical green trees, distant mountains, and companion islands frame the small stretch of perfect powder-soft sand. The blue sky above holds fluffy clouds—the slow kind that morph into fairytale creatures. It’s one of the few places I actively miss and dream about. I found a piece of myself on this tiny island, under a Jumbie Tree.

I look at this photo on dreary days. My new haiku sums up how it feels to stand in St. John’s soft waves.

apogee

Gentle wind is a local autumn kigo, as the trade winds slacken between summer and their winter peak.

This is a macro photo I took at dusk of our last summer peony. Soft pink layers of outer petals curve in and out of light and shadows. Fine points of focus create crisp edges that stand out amid the dominant bokeh. The way peonys slowly open, reminds me that it's okay not to rush. Our story isn't a race, it's an epic saga.

Though there was no chance of seeing a tropical sunset, this flower held the might of dusk's glory in its misty face. This scoop of autumn sherbert glows against green peeps of background bokeh.
