Here are the haiku written within the last week. I will add the last two days of the month's haiku by Saturday.
December 23
Christmas morning
the smell of damp socks on
the radiator
This haiku I wrote to use for my Christmas Day haiga. I actually found this photo by Francis P. Johnson first, then wrote the haiku to fit.
December 24
Christmas eve
always, always, always
something I forgot
December 25
Christmas breakfast
nothing special when one
lives with a cat
December 26
the warmth
of a cat's breath
December dawn
December 27
Christmas over
the end-of-year review
of deaths
December 28
going outside
while I can still hear the birds
...ravings of a twit
December 29
oak brown
all that remains
December
December 30
her knowledge
of snow limited to white
indoor cat
December 31
my only bling:
dried fruit in my oatmeal
New Year's Eve

Here's wishing you all a 2017 full of haiku hope and happiness, justice and peace.
In my new home, I do have radiators, and I love that socks and mittens can be draped on them to dry, warm, too! Love this, Diane.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda. Many an older home has rusty radiators from the mittens and socks of past generations!
DeleteMy favorites this week are 12/26 and 12/28. If only we could have a cat for president instead of a raving twit! I've enjoyed haikuing with you this month, Diane. Wishing you one day at a time and some pleasant surprises in 2017.
