Hysterical cats
Watching a bird on the deck
Tails swishing wildly

Haiku – 3 Looks at Stop
At the school bus stop
Children gleefully laughing
Playing as they wait
+
On the red stop sign
A colorful butterfly
Resting for a spell
+
Just past the stop sign
Down an unused dead-end street
Sat the house of screams

Haiku – Centuries Ago
An abandoned fort
A ghostly glowing soldier
Still standing his post

Haiku – Ahoy!
Upon the shoreline
Pirates buried their treasure
Black X marks the spot

Haiku – 7/22/2017
Sunshine cracks the clouds
Spilling out its bright warm rays
Morning starts to shine

Haiku – Above
In the deep dark night
Standing in an open field
Staring at the stars

Haiku – 3 Looks at Tree
Inside the oak tree
A loud and noisy blue jay
Calls out to the day
+
Underneath the tree
Sitting in its cool dark shade
A break from the sun
+
Hiding in the tree
Hoping that he is secure
Sheltered from the beast

Haiku – The Flash
A streak of lightning
Gone before you can see him
Protector of good
+
I’ve been given it some thought, and I think I’ve come up with my three favorite Superheroes.
Number 1: Batman
I guard the darkness
While the city sleeps below
Safely in slumber
Number 2: Spiderman
Up the wall he crawls
Moving with a spider’s ease
Slinging sticky webs
Number 3: The Flash
The CW has gotten me hooked on this character. I started Binge-Watching it this week, and I’m almost done with Season 1. To put that in perspective. I stay home with my two kids. I have about an hour each day and a few hours at night to watch this show. I managed to squeeze in 5 episodes yesterday. I couldn’t stop watching it and the only reason why I’m not watching it now is because my kids are about to get up. I honestly haven’t been hooked on a Superhero this fast or this quick since Batman. Amazing show. Don’t spoil it for me if you’ve seen it. I’m barely through Season 1, about at Episode 17. So, do you have a top three, five, eight, ten, etc. or do you have just one Superhero you champion?

Haiku – 3 Looks at Wall
Behind the white wall
Rips, tears, multiple scratches
The rats had found them
+
Hiding in the wall
Worried that they might be found
Nazis on the hunt
+
She fought against love
Putting up walls around her
Protecting her heart

This song has nothing to do with this post.
I’ve just been singing it since I read the prompt word for the week.
