Haiku – Chaste & Blush
I enjoy days like today now that we have it all figured out. No stress, no fuss, no muss. No more waiting for special occasions to do something special. Everyday is Christmas Eve <insert your own special occasion of choice> or it can be.
Sitting here in comfy PJs, flavored coffee that I should NOT be drinking at hand, I am taken to another place. I hear pleasant sounds. The dryer, the hum of the refrigerator, hard boiled eggs being cracked.
I think of the challenge words: Chaste and blush. Kya from “Where the Crawdads Sing” by Delia Owens, is the epitome of those two words. She is also free and untamed. Like many of us, she has a dual nature which cannot be defined.
Wow I am preachy today. You’d think I already nipped at the brandy but nope. No Kahlua in my coffee either. Anyways, today’s Haiku offering is a two-fer. Thank you Ronovan for providing the space to release these words from my mind.
Heron flew above
Unblemished sandy beaches
Glowing scarlet flush

The pink on her cheeks
Eyes closed anticipating
The first kiss of love
XOXOXO – Wishing you well this season and into 2019. May it be the BEST year yet 🙂

Haiku – Foot & Mouth
From the mouth of babes
Did flow an epic faux pas
Oh she stepped in it

Haiku – 12/11/18
she was powerless
as waves washed over the shores
of her anxious mind
Haiku – Goal & Cup
I’m blanking today. I know zilch about soccer. Instead I’ll just ping back so you can see all the wonderful offerings.

Haiku – Win & Lose
People want to win
Winning isn’t everything
We learn when we lose
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who gets to say what
It means to win or to lose
Decide for yourself
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Can’t win for losing
Is what my dad sometimes said
After a tough day
