Haiku Zoo

Where free range verse feigns docility

A haiku a day for a year

Thursday, May 31, 2007

Back to the routine
Up, dressed, out the door by eight
Sleeping in my bed

Wednesday, May 30, 2007

Time to hit the road
Under grey skies we will fly
Returning in dark

Tuesday, May 29, 2007

Hours of typing
Anticlimactic when sent
Must return to them

Monday, May 28, 2007

A surprise for sure
The scratching is enormous
Exit from pool now!

Sunday, May 27, 2007

Another day gone
Back to work in a moment
Sunshine and book now

Saturday, May 26, 2007

Beignets; delightful
Fried dough always so tasty
Calories ignored

Friday, May 25, 2007

Hugely restless night
Dreams aplenty; all quite weird
Nap will be needed

Thursday, May 24, 2007

It's just large enough
The straw stretches with effort
To cover noggin

Wednesday, May 23, 2007

When on vacation
Time equals the speed of light
At work, a snail's pace

Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Rolling red luggage
Stinky haze over G.A.
Snoozing on the couch

Monday, May 21, 2007

If sleep could be fast
Zs would blend into a buzz
Wakeful in wee hours

Sunday, May 20, 2007

Jewelry items bought
Laughable and historic
Professor Hord wins

Saturday, May 19, 2007

Tank tops in the sun
Right shoulders bear the red marks
Into the night hours

Saturday, May 19, 2007

Friday, May 18, 2007

Sound emanating
Vibration inside and out
Becki has arrived!

Thursday, May 17, 2007

The plot still thickens
Ice cream cups and kickball game
Surprises are great

Wednesday, May 16, 2007

Happy hour apt
In earning its name...happy
A day of work gone

Tuesday, May 15, 2007

Impromptu shopping
Gift items gathered in haste
Laughter fills the car

Monday, May 14, 2007

In the dim comfort
All obligations fulfilled
James my companion

Sunday, May 13, 2007

A day for mothers
Richly deserved praise and thanks
Brunch and summer plays

Saturday, May 12, 2007

Working way too hard
When a day full of errands
Is a vacation

Friday May 11, 2007

Friend reaches her goal
Long fought, but now a counselor
Drinks, dancing, and hugs

Thursday, May 10, 2007

A positive tone
Several productive meetings
An oxymoron?

Wednesday, May 09, 2007

Care package for friend
On the road to St. Louis
Seeking new answers

Tuesday, May 08, 2007

All the prep ends now
Gifts given, dinner consumed
Criticism starts

Monday, May 07, 2007

Walk-a-thon follows
Work-a-thon of epic scale
Is an end in sight?

Sunday, May 06, 2007

Appreciating
Plenty for others unknown
Not so personal

Saturday, May 05, 2007

Yoga this morning
Sigh summarizes climate
The coming week looms

Friday, May 04, 2007

Burritos; dessert
Friday night combo of champs
Not healthy, but fun

Thursday, May 03, 2007

Catching up with me
Forced to the background; shines through
Bikini to cope

Wednesday, May 02, 2007

Daring plan is hatched
Sugary, disruptive fun
Surprise for teacher

Tuesday, May 01, 2007

Rise with the sunshine
Attitude not as sunny
Coffee cures the ails
