haiku #585: a splash of colour / cherry tree petals / drifting silently falling

a splash of colour
cherry tree petals drifting
silently falling

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.

Here's a demo version of LE1. The final version sounds quite different, with less drone and a melodic guitar part added. Also, it's almost twice as long. Listen to it here: https://thenextcommuter.bandcamp.com/album/organised-sounds-waag-rel161
