haiku #592: slanting sunlight rays / a warm hazy afternoon / the forest to hear

Messing with a crystal bell ... !

slanting sunlight rays
a warm hazy afternoon
the forest to hear

Marc Sheridan is an ever-curious person who loves what is just around the corner: the unusual and the mysterious. Even everyday objects and scenes can always be viewed differently.

He is English but currently living in the US, and he always remembers what Ansel Adams once said, "You don't take a photograph, you make it." Marc believes that photography rewards him with a greater connection to everything around him.

Lately, Marc has been writing haiku, but he's not sure whether he illustrates his photos with haiku or reveals his haiku through photography.

He has been published in numerous magazines in the US and the UK and has exhibited up and down the West Coast of the US for the past 23 years.

Forest to hear

#4193 92.44% 343 left): Jun.7, 2025: Before you were or any hearts to beat  (again, William Butler Yeats from May 22, 2025) 

“I never expected my heart to tremble so deeply”

In “before you were or any hearts to beat,” Chair House captures the ephemeral pulse arising from stillness, crystallizing it into notes. The transparent touch reminiscent of post-rain air gently caresses past memories. As the title suggests, this melody preserves the warmth of days when hearts still raced, instantly transporting listeners back to their former selves—where improvisational inspiration and meticulous sound design weave the unique Chair House soundscape.

#4195 92.48% 341 left): Jun. 9, 2025: Saying all things were well  (again, William Butler Yeats from May 22, 2025) 

I blink and find my heart drifting beyond even the distant cuckoo’s call.

In “saying all things were well,” every note captures a moment of pure fulfillment. The improvisational touch ripples through the silence like a pebble cast into a still lake, gently stirring hidden memories. Within its brief 249-second journey lies a vivid narrative of joy and melancholy entwined.

and all that famous harmony of leaves - #4208 (92R77 percent 328 left) by chair house 250622 2

“Dying Lumen (Flickering Hope)”
A slow descent into dimness—where light still exists, but only as memory.
The piece unfolds like a shadow stretching across time, carried by deep, sustained tones and barely-there harmonics.
There is no climax. Only the gentle unraveling of something once certain.
What remains is a feeling: not absence, but the fading trace of presence. A mournful hush, suspended in sound.

Dying Lumen (Reignite Ver.)

So sing the leaves of Willow.
