Flapjacks

Flapjacks, rising stack, /

Griddled on an old stove top. /

Winter day sizzle.

Some days are toothpicks. /

Some days they collide.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Clouds”

All my friends are clouds /

Scuttling across the sky /

Whispering thunder.

Monday morning writing joke: “F-bomb”

IMG_6463_F-Bomb 100dpi_6x6_4c

There once was a purveyor of F-bombs /
Who dropped them like words of a psalm. /
One day on a streak /
He went well passed his peak /
Now his voice squeaks with lavender charm.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Irresistible”

It is not a nut. /
It is a legume, you say. /
I say, It’s a truck.

Haiku and Photos: “Signs and Voices”

Hurray for those who /
lift their voices and their signs. /
Behold a new Day.

Signs and voices 100dpi_7x7_4c_5193 copy

 

Rain will not dampen /
nor NRA lies decide /
the truth, nor the youth.
