So, yeah, I messed up!
In the summer, I often lose track of what day it is, and somehow a holiday on a Friday just confused me all the more. Which means that I skipped right over haiku Friday-- but we will make up for it today!
I hope everyone had a great 4th-- and let's haiku about that today. Here, I will go first:
I took a bike ride
To see the beauty of this
Place that we call home.
Now it is your turn (finally)! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun!
Blue Fourth of July.
ReplyDeleteHard to muster much
spirit with hateful MAGA.
CNN reports
only 39% of Dems
proud of America.
Imperfect history.
Aspirational values
no longer in play.
Corruption, greed,
selfishness, and red MAGA
hate of other: SAD.
Fireworks above
ReplyDeleteBursting colors paint the sky
Americana
Fireqork observation for Craig A
ReplyDeleteMAGA hats absent
But patriotic t-shirts
And crosses adorn
Many attendees
Await the skyshow, pass time
With endless scrolling
On 4th of July
ReplyDeleteI read my dad's account of
World War II service
Made me sad to think
of our country's values now.
Was struggle in vain?
Will compassion rule?
Can all thrive in America?
It depends on us.
