Throwback Friday, Two Haiku Written by Frankie

Frankie had his ‘Winter Groom’ this morning… and the two Haiku below were written by Frankie in April and June 2023. All the attached photos were taken during today’s grooming session.

My Haircut (a Haiku by ‘Frankie’, April 2023)

“I was too woolly”
That is what my master said
“Have you seen my coat?”

My Winter Haircut (a Haiku by Frankie, June 2023)

“Haircut time Frankie”
“Hey boss, it’s zero outside
Winter is still here”

Throwback Friday, Our River (a Haiku Revised)

Dedicated to my dear wife, to celebrate her birthday on Wednesday the 17th of April. I think my words say enough … I’m proud and honoured to present this Haiku as my “Throwback Friday” post today. Twelve years have passed and I’m quite emotional this week, and I apologise to fellow writers, and readers for not blogging and commenting with my usual zest.

Our River (a Haiku, Revised)

True love ebbs and flows

Hidden rocks etched our river

Stones soften to sand
