Haiku a Day

October 31, 2014
Excitement building,
costumes donned, the children wait-
candy from strangers.

Grey ceiling above
the old house's steep peaked roof.
Evergreens lend hue.

Sun breaks through autumn's
gloom to give bright summer dreams.
But the trees are bare.

October 28, 2014
Wild, windy night with
unsettled meowing cat.
Calm sleepy morning.
Monday, October 27, 2014

A snug box for cat,
a desk, chair, and screen for me.
I'd rather be cat.
Sunday, October 26, 2014

Grey skies weep, dark days,
rain steadily pours, red leaves.
It must be autumn.
Saturday, October 25, 2014
October 25, 2014
A new cardboard box
for me to sleep in all day.
Tough life of a cat.
Friday, October 24, 2014

The cat dislikes the
road improvement. Tuna would
be preferable.
Thursday, October 23, 2014
October 23, 2014
The racket outside
continues to disturb cat.
A giant vacuum.
Wednesday, October 22, 2014
October 22, 2014
Not even the sound
of pouring rain makes me sleep.
My thoughts beg paper.
Tuesday, October 21, 2014
October 21, 2014
The morning is glum,
melancholy autumn gloom.
My red tea tastes grey.
Monday, October 20, 2014
October 20, 2014
I place the tea leaves
into the teapot and wait.
Morning cup of bliss.
Sunday, October 19, 2014
October 19, 2014
Please don't dance with me,
just give me tuna instead.
My cat's Sunday thoughts.

Sunlight filters through
Norfolk Pine by the window.
Shadow echoes grace.
Friday, October 17, 2014
October 17, 2014
Sleep bookended by
my restless contemplations.
Dreams slip through my hands.

That strange smell of gas
can't mean good things for the car.
Mechanic visit?
Wednesday, October 15, 2014
October 15, 2014
Don't want to smudge you,
but I have to get stuff done.
Nail polish troubles.
Tuesday, October 14, 2014
October 14, 2014
Ambush doesn't work
anymore in the morning.
Cat medicine woes.
Monday, October 13, 2014
October 13, 2014
Get away from me,
with your antibiotics-
tastes of bananas.
Sunday, October 12, 2014
October 12, 2014
Don't offer me tap
water, rain water tastes best,
even when dirty.
Saturday, October 11, 2014
October 11, 2014
Pattering of rain,
brings cat running for the door.
His day out is ruined.
Friday, October 10, 2014
October 10, 2014
Restless night of sleep,
leaves me bleary eyed and tired.
Try again tonight.
Thursday, October 09, 2014
October 9, 2014
Fog horns in the night,
when I drift in sea of sleep.
Morning, sun on haze.
Wednesday, October 08, 2014
October 8, 2014
I listen to one-
hit wonders. Where are they now?
Have they blown their cash?
Tuesday, October 07, 2014
October 7, 2014
Can't remember what
a peaceful day round here was.
Quiet will return.
Monday, October 06, 2014
October 6, 2014
Somehow possible,
it's louder out there today-
sidewalk construction.
Sunday, October 05, 2014
October 5, 2014
Sunrise is later,
but sunset is earlier.
Got the autumn blues.
Saturday, October 04, 2014
October 4, 2014
Autumn weather rains
down outside. Wrapped in cashmere,
I just can't complain.
Friday, October 03, 2014
October 3, 2014
Blinding sun beats down
on my morning chair. Sunbathe
in comfort of home.
Thursday, October 02, 2014
October 2, 2014
Nights of sleeplessness,
I long for natural sleep.
Fall asleep, wake up.
Wednesday, October 01, 2014
October 1, 2014
Sounds like the world is
ending, road construction. It's
just the summer gone.
