A tall ship at sea
Tossed about on the ocean
Weathering the storm

Haiku – Unexpected
A small stranded boat
Dreams of sailing washed ashore
In a summer squall

Always liked this song. Just peaceful.

Haiku – By the Light of the Moon
A long midnight cruise
Sails up, filled out, billowing
Across the ocean

This song came to mind when I saw this challenge.

Haiku – Sailboat
Ocean going ship
Sails billowing, fat and full
Gliding on the blue

I woke up after the 3 a.m. feed this morning with a Jimmy Buffett song playing on my headphone (yes, I said head phone. I lost the ear bud cover to the other piece, so I lopped off that one and just kept the one. Helps when feeding the baby or listening out for her cries). Anyway, a Buffett song was on and it got me thinking about the beach. Then that got me thinking about this Haiku.

Haiku – Buffett Dreaming
This Haiku was inspired by this post: Sherry Fundin.
Check out her site for awesome book reviews and occasional side bars.
She has been a big supporter of mine. Thanks Sherry for all you’ve done for me.
Here’s the Haiku:
A boat on the water
Sails full, filled with warm salt air
Sea breeze in my face

Haiku – Red Sky Morning
Red skies start the day
Somewhere a sailor worries,
as the sails billow

A couple of my favorite songs involving the water and the world around it. Yes, I’m a metal head, but I do enjoy mellow music as well. John Denver goes all the way back to my childhood – listening to it with my dad. R.I.P. John Denver, gone, but not forgotten.
