Haiku Friday: Your gentle addiction


I am a little wiped out from reading about bad addictions, particularly to opioids. Yikes-- bad, bad stuff.  

But what of gentle addictions? To the morning paper, or swimming, or maybe Lance snack cakes ("Don't go round hungry!"). Let's downshift a little and haiku about that this week. Here, I will go first:

One cookie a day
But... chocolate chip goodness
Makes me quite smiley.

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

  5. Morning without juice,
    Like a day without sunshine.

    Lie in warm water
    My mind springs toward freedom
    (The bathroom door locks).

    Hmm it appears like your site ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any suggestions for inexperienced blog writers? I'd genuinely appreciate it. shaving kit
