Monday (morning) writing joke: “Writer from the farm”

There once was a writer from the farm

Who thought writing could do no harm.

Then one day while he uttered

Poetry he scribbled near a cow’s udder,

She kicked him because she was not charmed.

Possum love

The night was fulsome. /

The opossum was hungry. /

Bird seed made a feast.

Haiku and photo: “Puddles and promises”

Puddles and promises

Rain strayed through the night. /

Left skies gray and bruised with cold. /

Uncollected tears.

Shadows and sky

Sun climbs to freedom. /

Shadows take root in morning, /

Growing toward blue sky.

Haiku and illustration: “Double Parked”

Double parked

Into the heavens /

Word sprang forth from the earth: /

“You are double parked.”

Haiku and photo: “What remains”

What remains

Summer bloom faded. /

Fall echoes in winter’s husk. /

Scattered seeds whisper.

Paws

Cat on wet walkway /

Stretching to embrace the day /

Paws to wander why.
