snow haiku

February 7, 2021

Snow six inches deep,

Never melts but turns to ice,

The dogs walk on top.

Winter haiku

Gray skies no sunshine,

Winter birds flitter in trees,

no leaves to hide them.

more quarantine haikus

March 16, 2020

Standing on quicksand
feeling I’m in a nightmare
or sci-fi movie,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Place your trust in God,
Sanitize and stay at home
Be at peace with it,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cherish your loved ones,
Love travels across the miles,
wherever you are.

Quarantine

March 13, 2020

Sore throat burning fire

headaches, cough and runny nose,

quarantined to home.

 

At my daughter’s house,

grandkids, green tea, games of Yahtzee,

quarantine delight.

 

Corona virus haikus

March 9, 2020

Green tea, facial masks,

echinacea, plastic gloves,

ever present death.

 

Always wash your hands

singing of your favorite song

wash away the fear.

 

Watching numbers rise

as they speak in platitudes

when we need the truth.

Even if they’re tired,
Birds rise to their alarm clock
singing to the Sun.

Fall haiku

October 22, 2019

Fall rains, trees dropping
Their cloak of leaves to the ground
Leaving themselves bare.
