Jingle Jingle bells

Two partridges in a well

What a tale to tell!

 

Flying on Southwest

Please don’t pick this middle seat

I’m never lucky

 

Baking some cookies

Scent of gingerbread mingles

With the salty breeze

 

It is Christmas time

Children opening presents

Parents simply sigh

 

 

Two hours everyday.

Commuting is aging me.

Traffic, Traffic, Urrr...

 

Water rushing up

White foamy boarders chase us

And then fall backwards

 

I love you, but no.

-------

-----

Jingle bells ring

Hohoho chants Santa Claus

It must be Christmas

 

Who’s on the way now?

It’s me! Wading through airports

And security!

 

Nutmeg, cinnamon,

A baker’s Christmas delight

Smells of the season

Small air raid siren

In the middle of the night;

Time for bottle

 

Just eight days remain
To eat a stick candy cane
Christmas once again!

 

Fight on brave warriors! The end of all thought draws near

And we need more time

 

The sky is dark, gray

Sad clouds from no where appear

Tears fall down to earth

Back in the water

It’s a good place to get lost

Just keep swimming

YOLO: adequate

as an interjection out- standing as a verb

 

Thanks so much, Anna
It's fun to have a birthday
I get to eat cake

 

Giddy like a child

Yet aged just like a fine wine

Life is how you feel

 

Too tired today

Walking two miles in the park

Sit, relax, enjoy

The hills are greener
It's finally raining season
Oh, how wonderful

 

Please don't touch my ears
Why is Yoyo so grumpy?
Well, we are seeing vet

 

Are you a robot?

I can help you find your heart

What are these feelings?

 

Take a deep breath in

Breathe into those tough places

Breathe out, and let go

Rainy drainy day

Drops of wet seems here to stay

Sky is gloomy gray

 

I love chocolate

Absolute deliciousness

In the wintertime

 

Love my fleece jacket

It's festive, red, soft, and warm

Holiday snuggles

 

Big belly full of

Jelly. No not that Smuckers

But just as gooey.

 

My Haiku for today

Busy day today

People walking hurriedly home

Tired but happy

 

Feeling sound vibrate,
Air pushes out of my lungs,
forming melody

 

Yeah! Finally! Rain!
Greener grass and fresher air
Please end this drought!

 

Poor is the fellow

who cannot do without some

comforts – be happy!

 

No matter how much

I buy, ever more I want

What can fill the void?

 

If ants think at all

But in different fashion

Whence comes consciousness?

 

Proper lunch? No time!

Unwrap cheese balls, find crackers;

Napkin is your plate.

 

Wake up you, wake up

So many things on my plate

The day starts again.

 

You think you’re eating

shrimp, but in reality

they’re sea cockroaches
