Haiku to Edit 1

Global Haiku • Millikin University • June 2018

Cut. Add. Replace. Rearrange.

Rainy Thursday
Son playing soccer
We cheer

 

 

 

 

hand full of change
corner store
cavities

 

 

 

 

first year at summer camp
arms around her mother’s waist
a little girl changes her mind

 

new car scent 
dad cries 
tears of accomplishment

 

 

 

 

rolling green pastures
mud pies
lovingly scolded by mom

 

 

Midnight rain
Wet and cold
Feeling Incomplete

 

 

 

 

dark and misty moon
wrapped in blankets by the windowsill
we watch them go by 

 

 

 


misty dark halls
red nose clown
teenagers on the run
