Haiku – Christmastime – Part 5
Part 1
Christmastime of year
With a soft white snow falling
Killer spies his prize
Part 2
Cold and all alone
With presents of red and green
She hurries inside
Part 3
Killer makes his move
Jingle bells, detective sees
Feet rush through the snow
Part 4
Killer grips his knife
White lights twinkle in the hall
Victim doesn’t see
Part 5
Gun blasts from behind
Shots echo in the hallway
Killing spree is done

Haiku – Chicken Wingz
Plain, mild, hot, or sweet
Wings or drumsticks take your pick
Blue cheese on the side
So, what is your favorite way to have chicken wings?

Haiku – Storm
Sickness engulfing
A virus storm consuming –
all that is human
The prompt this week at Haiku Heights was for the word Storm so since this cold was my week I thought I would do a Haiku about it.

Haiku – Tree
For a hot day:
Please, take a shade break
Underneath my big green leaves
Escape from the sun
≈
For the apple tree:
I’ll hold your apples
Until my limbs get too tired –
and uninspired
≈
For the tree entering winter:
My leaves have fallen –
and my limbs are bare again
I can’t wait for spring

Haiku – Hula Girls
Moving – swishing – sway
Dancing to the island beat
With light skirts flowing
Just needed a little tropical break tonight. I hope you will take a moment and just breath in the islands and the magic they hold.
Traditional hula skirts are call Pa’u skirts and are made from brightly dyed fabric. The top of a Pa’u skirt contains casings that house long cords. Hulu dancers wrap the Pa’u skirt around their waist and tie the cords together on their left sides. Pa’u skirts come in different styles. Some contain a single cord and consist of a single panel of fabric. Other Pa’u skirts are made from multiple fabric panels with multiple rows of cording at the top. You can make a Pa’u skirt for yourself using printed cotton or polyester fabric.

If you’re interested in learning about the Hula Dance or the art of Hula Dancing, you are in the right place.
After me and my family went to Hawaii and spent a couple of weeks there, we fell in love with the hula dance. We also grew fond of the green, grassy skirts that are worn during the dance.
Here you’ll find videos that show various forms of the hula so you can see the dance in action. Other features are articles that discuss things like history all the way to how to hula.
If you have a love for Hawaiian dancing and would like to add a tropical flavor to your day, go ahead and click around.

Haiku – The Candy Tree
Green leaves, lime flavored
With a bark of candy cane
and roots of sugar
My latest crazy idea – Haiku for kids.
The question is, does it work? Interested in hearing your thoughts on it. Of course if it was in a book it would have an illustration to go along with it – so you have to kind of imagine it like that.
