Mother holds her young daughter
Comforts her dark fears

Haiku – Align
Great anticipation
Rare total solar eclipse
Day becomes the night
+
Are you guys excited for the eclipse today – 8/21/2017? Me, I honestly keep forgetting about it. It is a pretty cool thing to witness, but I’m so busy with life it just slips my mind. I thought I might write this Haiku today in order to celebrate this monumental moment. Are any of you doing anything special for it? And I hate to do this, but I have to. This song must be played loudly today. I truly do apologize. I really do. I still remember when this video used to play on MTV and other channels back in the day. I am getting old.

Helps to start the day

Monster feeding greedily
Upon its victim

Haiku – 3 Looks at Sky
Under a blue sky
Softly laying in the grass
Watching the white clouds

Under a night sky
Looking at all of the stars
Captured by beauty

Under a grey sky
Lover’s seeking protection
Inside a bus stop

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

An abandoned fort
A ghostly glowing soldier

Upon the shoreline
Pirates buried their treasure

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

In the deep dark night
Standing in an open field

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
