Haiku

Project Blue is hard.
Not much blue to be found near.
But this is “new” blue.
More “new” blue later.
Computers are full of it
Made me so happy.

“Breaking up”…

by Rebecca on April 25, 2008 · 17 comments

in Haiku

You know the saying
“Breaking up is hard to do”?
Very, very true.
Thursday, I “broke up”
with a doctor of five years.
Good care? Not lately.
Oh the guilt I felt.
I’m not sure why this is so.
Doctors are to help.
Have any of you
been in this situation
and also felt guilt?
Please, share your stories.
I’m curious what you did
and how things worked out.

Finally! Friday….
My weekend, at work day’s end.
Can’t come soon enough.
What? You ask my plans?
Blog. Read. Take photographs (natch).
Time spent with husband.
What’s my main desire?
Rest. This week has worn me out.
I could sleep for days.

Forgive the hijack
Of today’s Haiku Friday.
Shameless plug below.
But it’s almost time–
“How I Met My Honey,” on
April twenty-nine.
Ahh… “meeting stories”
are the best, and I love them.
I’ll share mine. Will you?
Mine, the old classic:
Boy meets dog, and girl meets dog.
Boy and girl then meet.
There was also poop.
Not gross, though it sounds like it.
Not telling just [...]

In a hospital –
Duke in North Carolina –
Tricia recovers.
Double-lung transplant
Wednesday night/Thursday morning.
Surgery success!
Cystic fibrosis
is no longer in her lungs:
a new lease on life.
Meet her husband Nate,
always by her side, pure love.
We all love him, too.
Miracle Gwyneth,
more than fifteen weeks early:
beyond doing well.
The road is still long,
But Mom’s come far already,
God’s hand in plain view.
Please [...]

Haiking haiku

in Haiku, Hiking

Tuesday’s post: stairs hike.
Asked if you want back story.
The answer? Yes, please.
Starting with next ‘ku
Stanzas will match Tuesday’s post
One pic per stanza.
“Base of falls,” sign says.
Amicalola Falls rocks!
Steepness to first step.
Danger possible.
Remain on trails and the stairs.
But stairs may kill me. :)
One seven five steps
“That can’t be that bad,” we say.
Sadly, we are wrong.
Step [...]

In mountains with Ed.
He’s way more fun than blogging.
I love autopost.
Blog three-sixty-five
is not being forgotten.
Changing time stamp good.
Needed alone time.
We don’t get enough — life stuff.
How do parents cope?
Be home tomorrow;
will blog some adventures then.
Stay tuned for more ‘kus.
I mean for more news.
No ‘kus until Friday next.
How will I survive?
:)
Edited to add:
Wireless is in [...]

Happy haiku day to you…

Today I will try
my first “Haiku Friday.” Hmm.
What haiku topic?
I think I will write
About three whom I have “met”
While blogging this year.
There is Momisodes,
Sandy to “real life” peeps.
She’s always so kind.
She’s a busy Mom,
Trying to balance it all.
Many hugs to her.
Then there is LouCeel.
One fine day he commented.
“Great!” I said to Ed.
But how’d he [...]

Haiku Monday?

by Rebecca on March 10, 2008 · 8 comments

Friend has deemed today
Haiku Monday at our work.
Feel much like Yoda.
Writing in Haiku
Good work for my poor brain cells,
Writing ‘normal’ hard.
Some people do this
Each Friday, many stanzas.
I, too, may try this.
