Haiku Friday: Riff on swine flu
Written by washwords on May 8, 2009 – 10:10 amI’m all knotted up
Disastrous case of twine flu
The cure: a good yarn
My pal’s back is hurt
Perhaps she has the spine flu
The cure: lay supine
Niece “bucket” age two
no shocker has caught “mine flu”
other tykes: adieu!
Complainin’ and mopey
I have the whine flu fer shure
Cure? methinks WINE flues!
I could go all day but lemme hear yours! leave a comment below
Debate? No debate?
Candidates love and love not
Lets get it started.
Metro whistlers, SHHHH!
Sometimes I wake up grumpy,
sometimes let him sleep
“solved.” without mccain.
it’s raining in washington
since obama left
snowdrifts of paper
email, voice-mail, lists to do
how to shovel out
and yet, even here,
even now, with so much flux
there is peace. in love.

Haiku Friday: Spring and Sprung
Written by washwords on April 10, 2009 – 9:02 amPeeking yellow, red
Tulips break the cold, dark, earth
Yet, still I shiver
Tired of winter
sniffling frozen noses
Grey, slow, roll of cloud
Yesterday, one ray
pierced straight through concrete path
I caught a glimpse: spring.

Haiku Friday:Love and Basketball
Written by washwords on March 20, 2009 – 4:31 pmMadness of the March.
Oh, b-ball, how I love thee.
Let the madness March
My love turned forty
frosting, tears, I’m still unsure
Do men live past then?
I dream of boats, snow
and wake to his touch, his heart
morning: he is here.
Day one, post forty
what a day: cake, b-ball, dogs
he’s happy, me too.
