Christmas

did it really come
christmas in Argentina
too hot with no snow

Future

They say it's untold

It's past or present for us

That's real cool, future.

Kitties

Snuggles in my bed
What a little sleepy head
Please sleep thru the night!




(PS, he didn't.
Kept pouncing with needle claws
Closed him in his room.)

Sweet Tea

Sweet Tea is best when
it is mixed with lemonade
an Arnie Palmer

when can we all be together again?

saying goodbye sucks

chris ben chelsea schnell jessi

krista anthony

Bandanas

Ode to bandanas
Though it breaketh all the rules
Yet will I wear you

Krista in Argentina

Oh Argentina
You lucky freakin' country
Take care of her please

or

Drove to the airport
Just trying to say goodbye
Man, I hate Delta

A Birthday

I turned twenty-six
dentures, gray hair, elastic
just around the bend

stray puppies

So cute and helpless

How could someone just drop them?

Wish we could keep her

Morning Breath

Like a Killer Whale
Morning breath is on the hunt
Tastes like death inside

Rainy Days

rain says drip, drip, drop
maybe I should watch Bambi
not April showers

Labor Day

I don't have a job.
I don't have any children.
vacation...hazah!

cover letters

a fact: i can't spell
trying to say it just right
oh, how i loath thee!

123 Haiku

A really fun game.
To play with all of your friends.
What will you create?

Our zip codes, area codes and dress codes are all different now. We also don't have Tara's Little Debbie erasable board to express our creativity on anymore. These are true statements but lame excuses for not playing 123 Haiku. So I am bringing it back blogging style. Play if you so choose.

Here is how to play for those of you who want to join in...

In real life (opposed to virtual life), a person would yell out "123 Haiku" at any random moment in time and then they would also choose the subject, such as cats, Napoleon, or Swedish Fish. The others in the room (who wanted to play) would quietly but quickly figure out their three lines of five syllables, seven syllables and five syllables having to do with the subject the instigator had called out. (See poem at the top of this post). Whoever came up with a correctly syllabled (yes, that is a word, I looked it up) poem first, was the winner. Nothing was actually won of course.

For our virtual world, I will give you a subject in the title of the post and my own haiku. Then you can submit your own as a comment.

Let the haiku-ing begin! Your first subject is as the title says.
