Lamentation Twenty Eight

Haiku for Summers Past.

"The Mill" Andrew Wyeth 1964.

In such cold weather

what warms the heart more than a

cartload of ice cream.

My response to the prompt for Mag 204 from Tess Kincaid at Willow Manor.

Lamentation Twenty Seven

The Icecutters' Lament: A Hiceku

Thick ice, very cold.

Very thick ice hard to cut

and we're cold. Very.

The picture above, (The Ice Cutters, 1911, Natalia Goncharova) is Tess Kincaid's prompt for Mag 198

Lamentation Twenty Six

A Haiku for Lovers

The Moth and the Lamp, Cesar Santos 

The moth says "Your love

sets me aflame." The flame says

"Yours suffocates me."

This Cesar Santos picture is Tess Kincaid's prompt for Mag 187.

Lamentation Twenty Five

A Haiku in Passing

Two cars crash head-on

in the passing place. Too much

courtesy can kill.

Tess Kincaid's prompt this week invites disaster. (Mag 183 is here.)

Lamentation Twenty Four

A Snapped Elastic Haiku

You think I enjoy

standing like this?  If I don't

my knickers fall down.

The prompts from Willow Manor are unfailingly entertaining.  Mag 181 is no exception.

Lamentation Twenty Three

Haiku on Two Manuals 

Drawing Hands, 1948 by M. C. Escher 

For once the right hand

knows what the left hand's doing . . .

And it's off the cuff!
