Pecking at frozen tree limbs
On a bleak cold day

Haiku – Sunday Afternoon with a Chance of Rain
Soft thunder rumbling
Grey skies turning dark and black
Storms are rolling in

Haiku – January Thunder
Summer and Winter
Like an old married couple
Bickering, fighting

They say it is going to be in the low seventies today, folks, this is January and that is absurd. On top of that, they are also calling for strong storms. It says winter on the calendar, but it sure feels like spring.

Poem – Robin in Winter
Southern Destinations
Didn’t call you home
You’ll winter here
Until Spring returns
+
I really don’t know if this poem is any good or not, probably not, but I kept seeing Robins in the yard and I just thought I would write a little something about them. I can’t believe that I am seeing them all ready. I thought this was a sure sign of Spring. I guess this new weather pattern has them confused as well. Anyway, hope you had a great New Year celebration and that you have a wonderful 2015.

Haiku – Light in the Storm
Cold and blustery
Winter winds, snow, and the sea
Lighthouse standing strong

This song came on Pandora this morning. It got me thinking about the massive winter storms that roll across the great lakes and the oceans. It inspired this Haiku.

Haiku – Coffee and Winter
Late afternoon cup
Steaming hot on a cold day
Filled with rain showers

How about something warm to get our minds off of Winter?

Haiku – Wednesday, Just Around Lunchtime
The rain chased away
Nature smiles in the bright light
Sunlight through the trees

Haiku – Tuesday Afternoon
Soaked, cloudy, and grey
Sky full of dark intense gloom
Raindrops dominate

Squirrel gathers nuts
Store them away for winter
Fall almost complete

Soft leaves of color scattered
In the gentle breeze

Haiku – Autumn Morning Wakes to Cold
Covered in orange
Cherry tree alive in flames
Like the rising sun
