lighthouse tavern
sea spray
on the rocks
#TheDailyHaiku
over cold coffee
fairy tales
of moral victory
#TheDailyHaiku
lazy osprey
too late
for herring breakfast
#TheDailyHaiku
only in cartoons
a lovable monster
#TheDailyHaiku
so little time
so many rivers
to cross
#TheDailyHaiku
open borders
the neighborhood cat
taunts our dog
#TheDailyHaiku
too close for comfort
the cheap perfume
of a fellow straphanger
#TheDailyHaiku
shallow river
only my dreams
float past
#TheDailyHaiku
civil twilight
my aspirations riveted
to the pillow
#TheDailyHaiku
homeward bound
a functionally obsolete bridge
#TheDailyHaiku
low tide
searching for meaning
in the sandpiper tracks
#TheDailyHaiku
king of the tides
a gull rides
the crest of a wave
#TheDailyHaiku
Spice Islands
the intoxicating flavor
of colonization
#TheDailyHaiku
wicked witch
melting in a muddle
of lies
#TheDailyHaiku
in the headlines
another failure
to communicate
#TheDailyHaiku
smoldering ruins
no time for
happy endings
#TheDailyHaiku
Facebook memories
comments from a friend
who unfriended us
#TheDailyHaiku
Spring snow
the ospreys wonder
why they returned
#TheDailyHaiku
abandoned train yard
ghosts wander
the rusty tracks
#TheDailyHaiku
déjà vu
I believe I've written
these words before
#TheDailyHaiku
headline news
even the past
is unpredictable
#TheDailyHaiku
escargot
inspiring the snail
to climb Mount Fuji
#TheDailyHaiku
Saint Patrick's Day
snakes slithering softly
#TheDailyHaiku
in my spam box
the opportunity
of a lifetime
#TheDailyHaiku
freeze-dried coffee
my mother
reminisces
#TheDailyHaiku
rain clouds
this is not
what I was waiting for
#TheDailyHaiku
warmer days
an old timer
remembers them
#TheDailyHaiku
his new address
the same as the old:
a state of flux
#TheDailyHaiku
holding pattern
sometimes you can't
go home again
#TheDailyHaiku
morning headlines
fairy tales
with tragic endings
#TheDailyHaiku
