Today is the second blogathon theme day--Haiku Day! Unfortunately, I missed last week's theme day, but it's always fun to do haikus. (And it's nice to have a shorter than usual post to do on a busy day.)
As I did last year, I've written two garden-related haikus. My first is, in fact, a sequel to one of last year's haikus. It seems fitting to put them together under one title:
The Neighbor's Cat Visits my Garden
i.
The cat from next door
has napped on my baby greens.
Leaves crushed into soil.
ii.
I have moved the greens
to a new bed in the shade.
Please, cat, stay away!
has napped on my baby greens.
Leaves crushed into soil.
ii.
I have moved the greens
to a new bed in the shade.
Please, cat, stay away!
And the second, perhaps a common sentiment this month:
The lawn is awash
with violets and clover;
I don't want to mow.
with violets and clover;
I don't want to mow.
More poetry tomorrow, though not of the haiku persuasion.
