Haiku Hiatus

Dear Faithful Haiku Challenge Entrants.

My sincerest apologies for not posting the Haiku Challenge tonight. I have been otherwised engaged with a fifteen hour workday that has just come to an end.

Though I leave you not with a photo to inspire your own haiku, I do leave you with my own creation. Perhaps it will inspire you. Or perhaps it will put you to sleep.



12:18 a.m.

Droopy eyes and foggy brain

Get me to my bed


Goodnight blogworld. Goodnight blogger friends.

I had eight hours once! It was great...

Swirling thoughts
A teasing precursor to
Dreams that just wont come!

hey jake - so glad that you keep comin' back. guess this was a suitable topic for you after your post last week. hope your sleep and dreams are coming sooner and more often. if only we could capture that night stillness somehow during the day.

Thanks, darlin', for coming over to play today...that was reeeeeeally sweet of you when you were so harried. XOXOXO

Caring and thoughtful
Supportive and there for me
Good for me my friend.

Birds chirping outside
Sunlight shining on my face
Wake me up again

C - excellent word verification. mine needs to say "mmmzrsock?"

Walking - what a nice surprise to see you here! That is the sweetest thing, my friend. i'm glad my rambling somehow helped :)Hope you're feeling better tonight.

Jackie - welcome and thank you for your beautiful haiku. i will imagine that is the sequel to mine...after about 12 hours of sleep!

Okay, I've been thinking about this for awhile...

Word Verification may become a new artform.

Until then...

Hrkit is a small tribe of Hungarian Pygmies who fabricate a fantastically complex but rather small Afghan that's named after them - the Hrkityf!

Becky said...

nice one l'amoureux. i think an entire blog could be dedicated to this artform. perhaps i will start one. or better yet, you would have to define the "verification" word...then use it in a haiku!

okay, maybe that's a little overboard.

"uarfmp" - the sighing sound you make when you get into bed only to realize that the fitted sheet corner has just unfitted itself and you now have to refit it whilst laying atop the bed.
