Lilacs and Love

scent of lilacs
zephyr borne
calls me home

near the back step
the fragile bush
blossoms sweet

fragrant as spring
fresh and warm
as parents’ love

Monday Haiku for OSI

~~~

on the seam
of winter and spring
snow swirls

~~~

right hides in fog
left swells with mist
crossroads

~~~

shifting sand
seasonal move
missing hour

Just sayin' for Sunday Scribblings

Sunday Scribblings offers this prompt: What pressing matter do you have weighing on your mind? What would you like to say to someone? What would you like to say to the world? Or to yourself? What do you think is important enough to make people listen? What would make you say, "Listen up because this is important?"



This came up again today and seems to be something I want to say... I'll no doubt have something else in an hour or so. :)

I love receiving e-mails, but where are we headed when much of the population is educated by rumor or knee-jerk opinion?

Please don't forward chain e-mails that purport lies to be truth. If you haven't the energy to let Snopes or other reliable sources investigate for you, just delete the fool things.

And, when forwarding an e-mail to 35 people, hiding them behind bcc (blind carbon copy) makes it a little tougher for scammer-spammers to harvest your closest friends' addresses.

There. I said it and I'm glad.

And, I love you! No matter what.

Chore by Limerick

Totally Optional Prompts posts:

So, this week let's write about some aspect of chores. Do you hate them like me or do you get a sense of satisfaction when they are completed? Don't forget about the outside chores, too, like mowing the grass and washing the car and shoveling snow if you live in an area where that is a necessity.
Follow the link to see what others wrote and to play along - it's a good site!

A Taste of Limerick

There once was a lady in lace
who refused to cook at her space
when friends came a-calling
they did their fare hauling
fetched it all in a wicker case
