Haiku Friday

My dear Old Guy Cat
I love you to distraction
No more rug pooping!

---------------

small sparkly objects
tiny fingers pick, poke, prod
this is toddler joy

--------------

big, stinky dog
so happy just to be close
fine. sit on the couch

---------------

three friends in a tub
we ALL have to get in there?
this bath is CRAZY!

---------------

intricate sorting
brow furrowed. tough decisions
'This one's for TuTu!'

Fancy

SO, I loved Haiku Wednesday, and apparently, so did my mom. She didn't post her replies directly here, but I'm taking the liberty of adding them as they trickle in :-P

Today, she found a marauder in our garden. A Squash Boring Beetle (gak.) - they bore into the core of the plant and it d-i-e-s :-( Here is what she sent to me:

red and black villain
boring beetle looking fancy
now sucks squash no more

Ya'll, I snorted when I read that. Pure genius.

Since my world is still on fire, I don't have a lot to add... bye... :-)

Haiku Wednesday - Edit :-)

Tattoo Vespa Guy
please stop spitting and speed up
behind you we wait

---------------

I'm thinking of you
pool of palest aqua blue
... about to jump in

--------------

stupid internet
hours wasted - eyes so tired
why must you taunt me

---------------

I could go on like this for hours, folks :-)

What say you? Want to play?

Edit: my mom's REALLY good at this!

Thursday Garden Haiku:


green aspirations
moon and stars watermelon
tendrils snatching beans
