And his carrot cake

Birds and Trees (a Haiku)
Trees are for the birds
Nature’s protective towers
Don’t destroy their homes

” When life gives you a reason to break down and cry, show life that you have a hundred reasons to smile and laugh.”
Don’t Cry Over Spilt Milk (a Haiku)
Breakfast milk is spilt
A silky pool on the floor
The bottle didn’t break

That is what my master said

This months poetry assignment at Coffee House Writers is to read the traditional Japanese writer, Matsuo Basho’s 10 top Haiku, and then try to write a Traditional style Haiku. I think my Haiku here might get me a ‘pass’ for the assignment …
Her Last Rainbow (a Haiku)
Etched upon greyness
Behind fluffy nimbus clouds
Her last rainbow glowed

Copied from my article on “Go Do Go Cafe” this morning. >> http://godoggocafe.com/2023/03/17/throwback-friday-please-let-the-world-stay-green-a-haiku-by-ivor-steven/
A poem from St Patrick’s Day last year (2022), and here I am again today. Maybe another poem/haiku tomorrow … it’ll be a shortish piece … I’ll be extra tired … ☘
Please! Let The World Stay Green
