Haiku Sunday – February 15, 2009
Today’s theme: include the name of your first pet. If you’ve never had a pet, I guess you’re off the hook!
Green like a kiwi
The first leaves are poking through
Winter’s too short here
(Yes, he was called Kiwi and he was a cat. Don’t ask.)

Hi
I like your Haiku and your theme instantly revived an old memory.
Boom of dynamite
One man was in the wrong place
Peanuts came running
(Peanuts was our black and brown daschund)
Twitchy-Nose-Whiskers
Inventive name for a pet
bunny, isn’t it?
(seriously, that was the first pet I had a hand in naming!)
A Lady she was
The best dog I ever had
I still miss her
My first real pet as an adult, Lochinvar, already has a poem written about him :)

But I can do a haiku…
Bravo, Lochinvar
Who knows what dev’lish evil
That pen would have raised
James slept next to me
until the day I left home.
I came back too late.

long night
pitch-black darkness hides
