Listen
Like the silver charms
Dangling from her busy wrist-
Tinkling sound of rain.
Mornings without you-
Cereal grains gnaw my heart,
Coffee sears my soul.
Little puppy paws,
Prancing around in the night-
Clicking nails on tile.
His motorcycle,
Shakes the fillings in my teeth-
He roars down the street.
Puppy paws are always a nice sound.
ReplyDeleteI love to write haiku. It makes one really think about thoughts and words. I write the older style of haiku and have posted several on my blog.
ReplyDeleteI too love the puppy paw one !
Wonderful post today.
