My thoughts about humans are sinking
Shazbat! I think you have been drinking
We’re not like this on Ork
Makes you look quite the dork
When you speak, without even thinking

This continuous flow we’ve encountered
Has made us very incapacitated
Someone’s been pouring too much wine
At this bar, called The Flux, so outdated
Still, a gathering of others, keep streaming in
They all appear to be quite inundated
By the amount of spirits making the rounds
Which is making us all nauseated
So, we’ll meet by the old clock tower
The one that’s so antiquated
Get in the DeLorean, cause that’s the one
Where the driver has been designated
Strap on your seat belt, get ready to fly
Your senses will become exhilarated
For once you are in the car with Doc
You can count on being evaporated

Can’t figure out how to read this
Perhaps it is hieroglyphics
A bunch of designs, fill the page
There’s nothing more specific
Should I sit here, on my behind
Wondering how the cavemen did it
Or make my way into the city
For the local museum’s exhibit?
Yes, I shall go down to the place
Where the writing’s on the wall
Stop, and ask the curator there
What it’s all about, this scrawl
But instead of helping me out
He shows me to a room, quite small
It’s where, he says, they secretly hide
The writer, named Nean Derthal

Sweet peas will blossom
Shy at first, then much bolder
With colorful blooms

I’m excited to announce, the second book in my Haiku series, Seasons ~ Winter Haiku, is now available on Amazon (in paperback only)! I hope you’ll enjoy reading it! The cover art is a photo I took this past winter (I’m hoping it has passed at this point!). I’d be ever so grateful if you should decide to share/reblog. I thank you kindly, in advance! ❤
This book contains 50 haiku and is described as:
Winter ~ Colors fade away, changing from gray, into covered mounds of pure white snow. From December til March we brace for the lasting chill in the air, impatiently awaiting the first signs of warmth. The haiku in this book take you from the last days of autumn, through the blustery days of winter and into the hopeful days of spring ahead.
Here is the link for this book – Seasons ~ Winter Haiku – Book Two
