My story was strong
Had it down to a tee, yet
Mom #unraveled it.

#haikufeels

If there isn't need
For witty commentary
I will #fade away.

#haikufeels

In time, I #invest.
Time returns more benefits
Than ever money.

#haikufeels

I cannot fathom
The news of the day, tragic
I #repair to bed.

#haikufeels

It is not in me
To waste a minute, you see,
#Minding your business.

I do not #mind it
Because it is not my task
To watch your failure.

I will sit in peace
And you will while away time
As it collapses.

#haikufeels

Sometimes I need reminding.

In quiet whispers
I hear you #speak of dark times
Your soft voice trembling.

I listen closely
As you reveal your secrets
Inform me of pain.

Oh, if only I
In some chivalrous manner
Could've saved your heart

I would, if I could
In my heart, mind, and passion
Slay the one who wronged
#haikufeels

Nicely done

Hilarious

Weft and warp all day
Need to turn #yarn into joy
Scarves for everyone.

#haikufeels

The weight of missing
The one I love is heavy
This must be a #crush.

#haikufeels

To say the new toy
Was #keen was understated,
The boy was flying.

#haikufeels

The trap which caught me
Is tight, must #gnaw off my arm
To get the ring off.

#haikufeels

Happy you are safe

The sound of snipping
The scissors #edit away
My poor history

#haikufeels

Tis #well we met here
Before these days were numbered
By the passing days.

We can speak our truths
And watch the wheels turn away
Not affecting us.

Tomorrow rolls by
To a yesterday long gone
As we love and live.

#haikufeels

It was #never real
The thought we could get along
With those bent on hate.

No matter how long
Or hard we did try to meet
We were shunned, ignored.

So now, we have learned
To do the hard thing alone.
Move the world forward.

#haikufeels

All quiet in town
Where people #never speak ill
That is all there is.

#haikufeels

Bears don't like barriers to beds

I am never the prize, just the tool,
Your forebears used me on flint
Fashioning axes and arrowheads.
Others used me to weigh down
Their nets, gathering eels and such.
Young boys flung me across rivers
Or at each other, mindlessly.
And now you expect me to speak
Of what I am worth? Nothing.
#MPPrompt

I served my country
In a uniform of blue
Honorably so.

Now, many years past,
I am at a #loss to know
If it was a waste.

The forces I fought,
As my forefathers had done,
Have taken control.

Was it all a waste
Of blood, guts, glory and life?
Someone answer me.

#haikufeels

We must consider
The #measure of a person
When planning to trust
In their abilities to rule
As a servant of all
Rather than the syncophant
Of the glorious few.

#vss365

I woke this morning
To the #jarring news of late
Congress doesn't care.

#haikufeels

A good laugh was had

Walking through forests
Leaves, #brittle with cold, crackle
As each step brings peace.

My mind slips away
From city problems, I breathe
For I am reborn.

#haikufeels

I may follow you
I most probably will not
#Lead on, I will watch.

#haikufeels

Thank you for your comment.

Time wandered on as if we were not there
Behind the door, waiting for the buzzer
The mechanism which would unlock, let us free
Yet, time continued, digital figures danced
Second by second, minutes dragged.
Nothing changed at all.

The weft has twisted
And #warped the sweater I weave.
Metaphor for life.

Excellent work
