Hi-Cu-ties

by Wren

Rated: E · Book · Other · #1914161

A haiku a day, more or less.

Following the lead of some friends who have started to write a haiku a day, I'll give it a try too. More or less.

I've edited this to be in the journal/blog fashion, and I hope that will give you a place to comment. If not, I'm not sure what to do to make that happen.

Hope your hands didn't get too many callouses!
I'd love a bit of clement weather to get outdoors a bit more.
Here I'm still heating the apartment every morning to get the chill out of the air.
Still wearing sweats too!

Lovely pastoral haiku. The inclusion of baseball in the third line is what makes it all work.

Like the seriousness offset by the playful last line.

But your description of "dead" sounds like a certain state of limbo one hear of during the up? or down? decision-making stage.

Yikes, hail! We've settled back to decent temperatures this week, not the mid 90's we had last week that felt like summer full on.

Sounds like you're planting a new orchard.
I like these in their detail.
