Hot cup of coffee
Patience and lots of deep breaths
Helps to start the day

Haiku – 7/22/2020
Night starting to rise
Sunlight fading into dusk
Another day complete

I wrote this last night as the sun was starting to set.

Haiku – 7/18/2020
Saturated ground
Thirsting for cool clear water
Clouds erupt with rain
+
Not raining today. I wrote this yesterday as we had a massive thunderstorm roll through. The storm lasted for hours and it inspired this Haiku.

Haiku – 7/9/2020
Hot afternoon sun
Day consumed by summer heat
Shade offers relief

Feels like a day for this song.

Haiku – 7/8/2020
The night approaching
Watching the lights on the cars
Twinkling as they move
+
Took a walk in the evening yesterday and wouldn’t you know it inspiration hit.

Haiku – 7/5/2020
In the eastern sky
Splashes of red appearing
Dawn’s light approaching

I wrote this paragraph for a 100 words or less flash fiction contest.
I thought I would share it.
Night closing. Dawn approaching. Vampire walks into the tomb after a long night of feasting. He sees his love, his eternal companion, nestled in her coffin. He looks around at the empty blood bags lying on the floor, a Vampire afraid of killing humans, she is a strange one. He hangs the full blood bags in the refrigerator, closes the door, and once again looks at the mess. He shakes his head, ageless shoulder length blonde hair rustling, and smiles – “Holy cow, that’s a lot of empties,” he replies and crawls into his coffin, settles in. The day arrives.

Haiku – 6/30/2020
Squirrel spots mushroom
Bright fungus quickly consumed
Happily it eats
+
Did you know squirrels eat mushrooms? I didn’t. Sat and watched one do it. Guess you learn something new each day.
