We're Brilliant

Winter Haiku

Scrape, brush, shovel,nouns
made verbs for winter again
dare I say blanket?

sun low through bare trees
crows fly in lines and clusters
late november air

all those leaves i did
not rake and hail the size of
astronaut ice cream

forty degrees here
so there is no snow in sight
should start working now

No Snow on the ground
No bitter chill in the air
This, my new Winter

no winter here yet
balmy, delicious reprieve
indian summer

I like it! I think that we should all get together and do this more often. Can we do one again right after Thanksgiving? I would really love to share "crazy family tidbits" with everyone. But that's probably just because I have a REALLY crazy family.

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. Tell Missy not to eat the entire turkey.
