Best Haiku Ever
We've had some great little poems here over the years, but I don't remember one quite as nice as my dad's last week (explainer: the photo was of my mom, Phyllis, in her garden):
Phyllis leans down to
welcome her friend's arrival
A spring love story.
Tracey joined us, with a too-familiar story:
Sunny guard tower
Breezes blow soft through barbed wire
Inside he awaits.
And the Medievalist seems a little down:
Dingy rainy day,
The rain falls on the just and
The unjust alike.
But not Jill Scoggins!:
Azaleas, redbuds,
tulips, daffodils. It’s spring.
The Ville. Colors burst!
Desiree hit a similar note:
Azaleas -- red,
pink, white, purple. Tangerine
is my favorite.
But IPLawGuy has the sneezies:
My car is yellow
sticky, dusty and coated
with sneezy pollen.
