I have a terrible 2 day headache. Hollis threw up. Several times. So, stuck in bed with my sick son while freezing rains fall, I write:
Haikus for January
Ice breaks off branches
My beautiful boy vomits
Work remains undone
Icy bamboo bows
Smoke caresses frozen sky
The cat’s paw twitches
One narcissus blooms
Searching stacks for Taj Mahal
Keeping hope alive
Silky dresses hide
Snowy tracks hint of robins
Wool socks must be found
Wind cracks icy leaves
Sea turtles somewhere swim free
The liquor store, closed
————————————-
Hee. ;)
And laugh.
Xoxo!
