Mad Kane Haiku


MAD Kane says: Now, of course, it’s your turn. Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to write a limerick or haiku (or both) about temper.

pierce the palm of his left hand
red gush of anger

Mad Kane Relatives

Mad Kane prompts: relatives...I don't have many, so I took liberties.



heaps of relatives
meet weak mass and energy
her frame is dragging

**
one weary auntie
five young cousins stayed the week
relative six-pack

It's about money


Mad Kane says:
Here in the U.S., tax return day (April 15th) is looming. So today’s limerick and haiku theme is taxes and tax returns or, if you prefer, forms that drive you nuts.
My haiku:


♣


they do not linger
they snub my tender welcome
...bucks just passing through

MadKane Yard Yarns Haiku


Today’s limerick and haiku theme from MadKane, the humorist, is: Yard Yarns


This meme is well worth a read as well as a play along!


♥

deep snow drifts
prompt yearning for spring
grass angels

♥

gardening on hold
earth mulching under snow hills
spring glances away

Stages

Mad Kane prompts - Life Stages. Come play along!

There are many and the most obvious is the one in which you currently fit. While the truth can be denied, fiction often tells it all.

A couple of contemporary haiku follow:

♥

deadline
acquires new meaning
last half


♥


too early
timer off kilter
too late now

MadKane Walking


Mad Kane Prompt: Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to write a limerick or haiku (or both) about walking. My response:


♥


jive strings
to my ears
bare feet skip


♥


stop light
skip intersection
jaywalk


♥


knees crack
my hips complain
dog trots onward


♥
