Silly Saturday: “Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse”

Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse

It’s the Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse.

Death in their DNA got the slip.

Now they roam the countryside.

Wild, winged, and bent on genocide.

Beware! should you cross their path.

They travel in herds and will attack.

Munch and crunch and chew to the ground

all flora and fauna and toes that can be found.

There is but one way to tame these bunnies.

That is to roll them over and rub their tummies.

But you might not be able to get that near,

at least not until you’ve have a couple of beers.

These bunnies are fierce in their apocalyptic way,

but belly rubs and carrots could save the day.

Saturday silliness: “Corg”

Corg

I am the Corgi. /

Resistance is but futile. /

Scratch me now, human.

Haiku and photo: “Stalk”

Stalk

The rose does not bloom. /

The morning glory entwines, /

blooms on borrowed stalk.

Haiku and photo: “How”

How

Cloud, how can this be?

You floating full in the sky.

Me standing empty?

Saturday silliness: “Unloose the Zeus”

Unloose the Zeus

upon these Olympic games.

Make room for his use;

to leave him out is our shame.

He’s the reason for the season,

be it winter or be it summer.

To ban him is but treason

and nothing short of a bummer.

Unloose the Zeus.

Do it now, I command.

And don your birthday suits,

play the games as originally planned.

Haiku and photo: “Work day”

Work day

Bee has no time clock. /

Only sun, life, instinct, work. /

Grace in the effort.

Senryu and photo: “Former self”

Former self

Some day you will find /

yourself hanging around and /

wonder where you’ve been.

Asters yellow blooms. /

A virus on corn flowers. /

No vaccine or masks.

Out doing

Not to be outdone, /

lightning bug out doing /

pollen to do, too.

Haiku and photo: “The music”

The music

I see a cello /

And maybe three violins. /

Flowering music.
