Haiku du jour

Holiday cards flutter
in like snow, making my life
glitter and glisten.

Haiku du Jour

the holiday calms
the morning rush, the world stills -
my heart opens wide

Blackout - Haiku du jour

blackout tonight - no
noisy toys - now I can hear
the moon, see the wind





Life in Michigan involves power outages - a combination of trees, high winds, and downed power lines. It was startling to realize how many electrical gadgets get me through my day, but nice to just go to bed because there was nothing else to do.

Haiku 3 du Jour

daily office joke -
morning coffee, mid-morning
scramble, closed restrooms

Haiku 2 du Jour

the air grows colder,
noisy holidays draw near -
maple leaves linger

Haiku du Jour

chasing yellow leaves,
I bid farewell to summer,
to another year

Fall - Haiku du Jour

open skies over
a golden carpet of leaves -
endings and beginnings
