Occasional Haiku

4/29/16

Yay!  Now there IS green.
And white, and pink, and even
birds.  But also . . . frost.

4/12/16

There is still no green
on the trees outside my dorm.
Dude.  Where are you, spring?

3/25/16

I have now started
carrying goldfish crackers
to distract the geese.

3/24/16

I think that the geese
surely have some dirt on me
the way that they stare.

3/23/16

Again with the geese
they watch me as I walk by
what are they thinking?

3/22/16

Geese outside the door,
geese outside of my window
have the upper hand.

3/21/16

Today, a snow day.
But! Then! The bright sun came out.
There is no more snow.

3/18/16

Oh little sparrow
and robin newly returned.
I hope you don't freeze.

3/17/16

Only in Boston
do they have off public school
for St. Patty's Day.

3/16/16

What is this you say?
A foot of snow is coming
our way?  WTF.

3/15/16

Well, Trump didn't win!
Yet.  Mostly. Okay.  He did.
But not completely.

3/14/16

I hope that you know,
if Trump wins tomorrow night,
we all might be doomed.

3/11/16

Oh debates.  Why don't
the Republicans just arm
wrestle or something.


3/10/16

Kid home sick again.
But!  Then! There is some good news.
Can't say what just yet.

3/9/16

Seventy degrees
as well as ample sunshine
Sick kid home from school.

3/7/16

American Girl
has entered my happy home.
Well played, catalog.

3/3/16

Is it really spring
break if it is still winter,
and I have to work?

3/2/16

Oh, Massachusetts,
I thought we're better than this.
Forty-nine percent?!

3/1/16

It's Super Tuesday
Pretty please, go out and vote.
And please not for Trump.

2/29/16

Even though I have
an entire extra day
things remain undone.


2/26/16

I have just now learned
that I am able to have
cookies delivered.

2/25/16

Another debate
is on after my bedtime?
Sigh.  Inconvenient.

2/24/16

I got new cough drops
they really taste like candy
but don't help my cough.

2/23/16

One might be tempted
to say that I keep Fenway
Target in business.

2/22/16

Out of anyone,
I would prefer to vote for
Josiah Bartlett.

2/18/16

The remote control
only goes missing when I
want to watch TV.

2/17/16

What is it about
bacon that makes everything
it flavors, better?

2/16/16

Though it was icy
the air is also quite warm.
Boston, dude, what gives?

2/15/16

I really should be
doing my homework right now.
Yet I'm at Starbucks.

2/14/16

Though Valentine's Day
is kind of dumb, I would be
glad to eat candy.

2/13/16

It is too cold out.
Everyone is stuck inside.
Kung Fu Panda helps.

2/12/16

The Boston Public
Library has a cafe.
It is so perfect.

It always smells like
paper and ink and sometimes
roast beef and bacon.

2/11/16

I watch far too much
of children's television.
The Odd Squad is best.

2/10/16

I don't really care
about eating meat most days.
Except when I can't.

2/9/16

It is Fat Tuesday
so I will drink the soda
for but one more day.

2/8/16

Another snow day.
What few marbles I had left
have since rolled away.

2/7/16

Oh, there's a game on?
Wait, are the Steelers playing?
Then there is no game.

2/6/16

Dear Rachel Maddow
please moderate all debates
until November.

2/5/16

It was fifty-five
yesterday.  But now it's a
snow day.  Heavy sigh.

2/4/16

Rain, rain, go away.
Oh, wait.  This is better than
the snow.  Never mind.

2/3/16

I had a new pen,
but like all the pens before
It's no longer here.

2/2/16

Punxsutawney Phil
did not see his shadow.  Bless
you, little marmot.
