Haiku Friday: The House I Grew Up In


Some people grow up in many houses; others in only one. We all have memories, though, of those shelters. We shared them with brothers, sisters, sometimes cousins, parents, grandparents.

Let's haiku about that this week: The house you grew up in.

Here, I will go first:

I loved the milk chute
So long ago, that it was where
The milk was found: Joy!

Now it is your turn! Just make it 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables, and have some fun!

    It was a silver green
    Box on desert farm.Boulders,
    Sagebrush preceded it.

    It was set on blocks
    That replaced the wheels, but there
    We were together.

    In Ohio. Still wonder
    If we had not left

  4. Old Victorian,
    You could get lost in the place,
    Castle on the hill.

    It stood by Muse Road.
    Who was she this Muse? Or He?
    Who fed me with dreams?

    The wind crooned to me
    through my mother's willow &
    White blossom'd Locust.
