Haiku Friday: Venting

 


This month can be stressful, and there is a lot upsetting people these days: politics, Notre Dame not making the football playoffs, a lack of snow in the West, etc. etc. etc. So let's get some venting done before the heart of the Christmas season is here and then turn towards our better angels. Here, I will go first:

It rained just so
It could freeze beneath the snow
Now, cars go skating.

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun!

    Climate change Christmas:
    Forecast for the twenty-fifth is
    Sixty degrees … Grrrrr.

    No Christmas sweaters,
    no cold, no snow, no pond ice
    no fire in fireplace!

  5. Ooh an early “airing of grievances”! Yes, please!

    I sit through a half
    hour of ads, previews. There
    oughta be a law!

    Please don’t explain your
    diet choices when you see
    no meat on my plate.

    We’re seeing wacky
    weather changes everywhere.
    But sure, it’s a hoax.

    You don’t vaccinate
    yourself, so my mom gets sick.
    Thanks, you’re a giver.

    thanks to those puny pockets
    in women’s blue jeans.

  8. A fire will not burn
    Unless set up with venting
    Oxygen is key

  9. The risk of a fire
    In the kitchen can be high
    If stove does not vent

  10. In the winter months
    My dryer vent puts out steam
    from side of the house
