Day filled with sunshine
Nature covered in brightness
Silently happy

Crawling from the murk
Monster oozing with evil
Eyes glowing dark red

Haiku – 6/13/2021
A door clicks open
Unpleasant smell of decay
Takes over the room
+
Soft shuffling of feet
It enters the tiny house
Looking for a feast
+
Terror fills his soul
Running for a quick exit
The back door is blocked
+
There is no way out
Man grabs a long kitchen knife
Time to go to war
+
I know I haven’t been posting much as of late, honestly having been doing a lot of creative stuff lately. Kids are out of school, schedule is tighter, free time is tighter as well, and most days I’d rather relax than post in a blog. Just wanted to put that out there in case you are wondering where I have dissappeared to. And next week I finally getting to have a vacation of sorts, going to visit family. This will be the first trip me and my family have taken since Christmas of 2019. Crazy. That’s it and below you will find a picture I was going to write a Haiku about for this post. Decided to write a horror tale instead, but I thought I would leave the picture. I like the way it turned out.

Haiku – 5/9/2021
Field of butter cups
Among the towering grass
A splash of yellow

And to all the mothers reading this right now – Happy Mother’s Day!

Haiku – 5/7/2021
A cool ghostly kiss
Cemetery lips on skin
Pressed to his forehead
Funny thing. This Haiku was inspired by something tickling my nose as I went to bed last night. I assume it was a piece of string or the bed sheet – but, who knows?
Dull tomato red
Piercing the new morning sky
Storm about to break
When I got out of bed this morning the sky looked amazing and it looked like it was about to burst with the most violent storm I had ever seen. Thankfully it didn’t, but it did inspire this Haiku.
