National Haiku
Poetry Day is today
Write responsibly
Friends never let friends
write limericks or sonnets
When haiku will do
Maybe yes, maybe
No, maybe rain, maybe snow
Happy holidays
Commemorative
day to write haiku, perhaps
I’ve too much free time
A grinding grayness
Every short day is colder
But I’m sure Spring comes
Broken sleep last night
my sweetie sounds like Vader
Tonight, the guest room
Oh, time on my hands
The devil’s plaything, no doubt
Inflicting bad poetry
Winter in Falls Church, VA, 2006
