Spring was here before

Now it's gone I'm chilled all through

Tired of winter's cold

  • (It couldn't be stopped, this morning's string of haiku. Oh, insistent muse.)   Morning with Corvus, Rooks, Jackdaws, Ravens or Crows, I think they're my friends.

Nice weather today

Tomorrow will bring more snow

It will simply melt

It's a sunny day

There is still snow on the ground

It's teasing the sun

Ducks molting, revolting.

Cassoulet, gumbo on hold.

Hurry up quack quack.

(It couldn't be stopped,

this morning's string of haiku.

Oh, insistent muse.)

 

Morning with Corvus,

Rooks, Jackdaws, Ravens or Crows,

I think they're my friends.

 

Out my own back door, 

I put Crow whistle to lips,

blew, 'Crow! Hey you, Crow'

 

Papa Crow up there,

listened to my Crow whistle,

'wtf', he thought..

 

 

Change can be chaos

but often interesting,

Oh !  Ambivalence.

 

To love the familiar

is never arduous.

Challenge can be fun

Watching sport from oz

Should be in the land of nod

Day off tomorrow

 

Swimming tomorrow

Not enough to lose the pounds

Let's hit the sauna

Up again 'fore dawn

why does sleep elude me so

coax it I cannot

I'm glad you are getting relief from the cold. I'm in the other hemisphere so we will have winter soon. :-(

 

the sleepy haikus

for all my wide awake friends

gently rock cradle

 

breathing slow, slowly

deep and slowly,  deeply slow, 

hypnotic rhythms  

 

wedge your palm of thumb 

into your solar plexus,

silent lullaby

 

nice warm bubble bath

can give you rest without sleep,

chamomile tea, please.


 

Brioche bread weekend

No knead eggs and butter treat

Cold fermentation

Bread sounds delightful

savory comforting warm

can I come over?

Thursday here so soon.

Now, too tired to think much,

Crow was back, now sleep.
