Pure joy...

Mama's Losin' It

WRITER'S WORKSHOP PROMPT:

Write a Haiku that describes what you love about an ordinary day (typically a Haiku is supposed to be about nature, but this is what I love most about an ordinary day so here we go).


waylon and me

His day begins mine
In the shadow of my boy
My senses renewed

Aww this is a sweet haiku/senryu, I'm a huge haiku fan, I love that it's so quick to do but you can say so much with just a few lines.

Oooh! That was good. I'm a huge avoider of non-rhyming poetry, but I liked that. Maybe I should give haiku another chance?!
