Haiku Zoo

Where free range verse feigns docility

A haiku a day for a year

Monday, April 30, 2007

Lengthy toil ends
Much deserved reprieve is earned
At least for today

Sunday, April 29, 2007

Cookout and movie
Quality time with my dad
Beautiful table

Saturday, April 28, 2007

Desk bound effort spent
While sun is shining outside
Relaxing while dark

Friday, April 27, 2007

Is text an art form?
Hilarious tale makes day
Of reader, writer

Thursday, April 26, 2007

For the love of G
G Love, that is; rockin' hard
Ten year bond lives on

Wednesday, April 25, 2007

My new nemesis
Telephone directory
Inaccuracies

Tuesday, April 24, 2007

Brochures: the topic
Drama ensues, paper bad
Inappropriate

Monday, April 23, 2007

Disappointment reigns
Expectations left unmet
Better days ahead

Sunday, April 22, 2007

Windy city shines
When it's eighty, I'm tempted
Zero means stay home

Saturday, April 21, 2007

Official party
Soaking in swanky comfort
Two-seven, plus one

Saturday, April 21, 2007

Friday, April 20, 2007

A day of shopping
Anticipated dinner
Curfew is broken

Thursday, April 19, 2007

I'm riding the rails
Red suitcase stuffed with my shoes
Windy city bound

Wednesday, April 18, 2007

Private fashion show
White, red, and black prevailing
Folded into case

Tuesday, April 17, 2007

It's the big two-eight
Chronology says adult
I say still a kid

Monday, April 16, 2007

Appetizers made
All guests assembled en mass
Award presented

Sunday, April 15, 2007

Hours of worry
No rest for Laura or kids
A repeated theme

Saturday, April 14, 2007

Watching consumption
Result of winter weather
Or filling a void?

Friday, April 13, 2007

New lyrics devised
Zoo and museum, venues
Watch out for the flirt

Thursday, April 12, 2007

Twinkling on the ground
Awkward standing at the wall
Impeding movement

Wednesday, April 11, 2007

Sneak attack from side
Controversy created
An embarrassment

Tuesday, April 10, 2007

Needle in haystack
Misplaced temporarily
Transportation hides

Monday, April 09, 2007

The heir apparent
At the table of the king
Middle initial

Sunday, April 08, 2007

Too cold for springtime
Toddlers covered in candy
And their winter coats

Saturday, April 07, 2007

Graceful on the ice
Will to fight for victory
Lost by goalie, punk

Friday, April 06, 2007

Fingers tented; strong
Exercise, but not straining
Lazy on next mat

Thursday, April 05, 2007

A cavernous room
It's not so netty, this five
Pumpkin bread pudding

Wednesday, April 04, 2007

Wednesday or Thursday?
My disorientation
Shortens the work week

Tuesday, April 03, 2007

Bright spot in the rain
Good news truly contagious
Pancake breakfast planned

Monday, April 02, 2007

Door opened with key
Mini hibernation done
Soon buzzing with life

Sunday, April 01, 2007

Disrupting winged friends
Materializing cups
Displayed in foreground

Saturday, March 31, 2007

I'm playing catch-up
On the run, car filled; emptied
Efficient to max
