Half Sun/Summer

Summer sun only half showing, grinning

I don’t know why it’s only half..perhaps because we’ve been experiencing mostly rain this past week, strong storms and mild temperatures. But I imagine this will all change and we’ll have the hot hot summers we all know and mostly hate here in Texas. Bleh because it’s only June 1st!

I checked out a Japanese haiku book out in the library for my kids. And I enjoy reading them as well. 

Saturday: Birds and Coffee

If I knew how to write a haiku I would write one about Saturday, birds and coffee.

Saturday coffee

Birds chirp their ceremony

A song ripe with love

That’s the best I can do in a moment’s notice.

But I doodled the Saturday and bird already:

A teeny bird on top of my coffee. His voice is so beautiful however small!

Even my cat Ralph is enjoying the songs of the birds this morning. Of course he’s plotting murder, I know it.
