Tend to the flowers
Prune, protect and water them
Enjoy their beauty

Dismissive
She said she “word paints”
Syllables, her medium
Critics get brushed off
Eleven months
Eleven months
We just have eleven months
Christmas Eve is near
Snow Falling
See the snow falling
Swirling, blowing, covering
Thin tree limbs will bow
A haiku for bats
Bats hang inverted
The cave is dark all day long
When night falls they fly
Haiku for an ice cube
Cold clear and solid
Melting in my tea tumbler
soon liquid again
Haiku for a new pencil
Ticonderoga
yellow pencil Number 2
eraser pristine
A haiku for Hawaiian sandwiches
Hawaiian Islands
Cook called them Sandwich Islands
SPAM came much later
A haiku for romantics
Life is far too short
Time is not to be wasted
Take a chance on love
Haiku for the letter Q
We have fifty states
Some are difficult to spell
Never use a Q
