The Challenge!

Jenni challenged us all to write HAIKU during this time:

This was her email to us:

Didn’t you wake up this morning thinking it’s about time to write some Haiku? Me too!!! 😉😂

Here’s mine:

The world has gone mad

Things will never be the same

Coronovirus

End of the handshake

Rise of the toilet paper

Bangs are in again

Let’s hear yours.....

5/7/5 syllables 

From Allen:

Black bird broke her beak.

Window light deceived her flight.

Freedom bright, then night.

From Jordan:  (Who is in New York fighting for many lives in a Long Island hospital!)

April rains come down

Bringing economic frown

Disrupts precious Tao

Everyone alone

Thank god we all have our phones

to share and bemoan

Yet, even still, blooms!

World alight with spring perfumes

Refreshing communes

Soon twill be alright

We will hug and talk all night

Laughs about our plight

From Jeremy:

These Haikus were fun

I'm not sure I can play too

Bangs are in again?

From Loni:

HEY,  I’m almost there.

I am still trying to think.

Could be a good while.

From Kristi:

be safe, stay at home

if you don't, you could get sick  

or could break a bone

i really enjoyed 

all of your thoughtful haikus

my family rocks 

From Eli:

Sunday drive with fam

Very, very, very big waste of time

I feel sick; let’s go

From Amy:

Teenagers make drives painful

Don’t appreciate

Quality time with parents

We went to Kamas

Spied cranes, geese, ducks on

Soggy, muddy banks

And, Jenni finished it off:

Jeremy, Kristi

Amy, Eli, and dear mom

So so so so great!

I love our family, as Kristi says, our family ROCKS!
