just you and your mom
all alone at home
1-1-1-middle
she told you later
only the midwife was late —
and ate all the food!

a haiku soliloquy; grandma

Posted on by

haiku’s in the air
feel it dancing around me
but can’t grab the words!
–
seventeen syllables
we were taught in grade school
is a good haiku
–
the 5-7-5 rule
in the Western world’s not
quite right – nor am I!
–
just a few lines
catching a glimpse of nature
is the real point
–
grandma — all the relatives gone
in her easy chair
snoring

Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day
comes just once a year
but our love for you
goes on and on
1-1-1-middle 
as printed on card to rhyme:

Mother’s Day
comes just once a year
but our love for you
lives far and near!
