Enough of the chatter and chitter
Of comedy legends on Twitter!
Their posts are too brief
And replies cause me grief
As a reader, with nary a titter.

Spring Thaw Approaches

I haven’t been able to get it together here since getting back from Canada, partly because of work and partly because of the usual photo backlog working its way through my evenings like a goat through a python. Here instead—for now—are three haiku written a couple of weeks ago for a writers’ group, the first two on the theme of the Unpublished Novel:

A thousand ideas
Suspended in memory
Spring thaw approaches

The last pine needles
Fall from the highest branches
Time to sweep them up
