Haiku Thursday

Rain is falling down
Both of the dogs are snoring
It's very peaceful.

I'm reading the blogs
Skipping over to Facebook
And then back again.

The house is a mess
The dogs were chewing rope toys
Now shredded to bits.

Soon I must arise
Go clean up the living room
And do some dishes.

Then I must go out
Venture forth into the rain
And visit my aunt.

But for now, I think
I'll just sit here reading blogs
And listen to jazz...

Your haiku are fine--
They give me resolve to try
Writing a comment.

Well done, KGMom!

Sherry, I HATE rain. Luckily it wasn't raining too hard.

Maui--years ago I wrote a long haiku birthday poem for my husband. I haven't read it for a while, but I thought I did fairly well on that--more sentiment behind it, of course.

That's great, KG. I am not much of a poet but find writing haiku is an amusing pastime. I have seen some really exquisite versions of the form that I could never hope to emulate!

Haiku fills a need
Whenever we like to read
Just a litle bit

I enjoyed your linked haiku poem.

LOL, just realized I posted under "Bloomfield Animal Shelter" instead of my Mauigirl sign-in. Oops!
