Cupid’s aim was true
A straight shot through her warm heart
Beating strong with love

Haiku – 1/13/2018
Salt and pepper skies
Thick clouds filled with winter rain
Day, cold, bleak, and grey

Fear Filled Fridays (1/12/2018): Haunted
Hear the eerie wind whistle, across the cold dark night,
see the unknown figure, float into sight.
Slowly it drifts, pale and transparent.
It stops and looks at me.
I look at it.
Its eyes are not there, only sockets full of despair.
A smile rises across its face,
the grin is pure evil and full of pain,
it raises an arm and points to the right,
towards the graveyard just out of sight.
I freeze at the window and shake at the knees.
A cold sweat creeps down my back, just like I’m under attack.
I scream at the top of my lungs, “Go away leave me alone!”
It drops its arm and dissolves with a cold chilly laugh.

Haiku – Tropical Holiday 2
This is another one of mine that kind of got lost in the shuffle earlier this month. I liked the sound of it so I thought I would give it another shot at stardom this Christmas season.

Boat on the ocean
Silver bells tied to the mast
Jingling with the waves

Haiku – Tropical Holiday 1
I wrote this Haiku earlier this month and for some reason it got lost in the shuffle of the day. I thought I would re-post it because I really liked this one. I wanted to give it a second chance this holiday season.

Haiku – 12/10/2017
Covered in white frost
The world twinkling like diamonds
In the bright warm sun

This song has nothing to do with this post.
It just popped into my mind while I was writing this Haiku.
