Haiku writing is hungry work

when is dinner? soon?
poets less ethereal
need some sustenance.

A break then for food
and return re-energized
and ready to write!

meta-haiku day

today, haiku day
my brain, in fives and sevens,
converts all to words.

why write a haiku
when the syllables are few?
for the clarity!

haiku short and sweet
no matter what the subject
sparkle and condense.

Haiku Day 2013

I know I recently saw the charging/pairing cable for the iPhone headset.

And now? It’s nowhere… just silliness.

Cord, recently seen,
cable, accident’ly found
whither has thou gone?

looked in all the places
an errant cable would hide
it’s on vacation?

oops another haiku! or two…

jonquils and sunshine
bobbing in the april breeze
glad to delight you.

human-designed spring
no doubt sooner and longer
not at all better

haiku day continued

what spring brings to us
who long waited its coming:
renewed lease on hope

whether grey or bright
daffodils shine as you pass
shouting, spring! it’s come!

daily, weekly tasks
vaporize and reappear
done, undone, redone
