Weekend haiku

I'm now at an age  

where retirement can be  

counted on one hand  

------------------------------  

It's my annual  

physical, only a year  

and a half past due

Friday haiku

room is proof that aiming and  

shooting are not strengths

room is proof I should never  

consider hunting

Wednesday haiku

I've reached another  

decade, hoping there's at least  

a few more to come

Tuesday haiku

 He said April was  

the perfect time to visit,  

too bad it's July

Monday haiku

Memorial Day  

is a time to give thanks to  

those folks who gave all

Weekend haiku

She said that she was  

under the weather, but then  

really, aren't we all?  

--------------------------------  

Long ago, I used  

to be young and a smartass.  

I'm no longer young

Friday haiku

I see pajamas  

all over. Do these people  

wear blue jeans to bed?

Thursday haiku

I had wanted to  

try the all-cashew diet,  

but it was just nuts

Wednesday haiku

 Anniversary  

gifts remind your spouse that your  

memory still works

Tuesday haiku

The old floors creak so  

much walking across them, they  

must be complaining

Monday haiku

Everyone is in  

bed by ten p.m., so there  

are no night owls here

Weekend haiku

While she ordered the  

senior breakfast, she will not  

admit that she's old  

----------------------------------  

It's easier to  

get the group to agree to  

plans than enjoy them

Friday haiku

There are some days where  

you need a long nap just to  

make it to bedtime

Thursday haiku

SIXTY!?! The big six  

zero.  I've reached the decade  

of retirement

Wednesday haiku

He said April was  

the perfect time to visit.  

So far, he's not wrong.

Tuesday haiku

Another blue sky  

day in Walla Walla makes  

it harder to leave

Monday haiku

The moon half full, a  

reminder to us all that  

you're no longer here

Weekend haiku

Even a twin bed  

feels so much larger when there  

are no pets on it  

-------------------------------------  

A record player  

and vinyl in a rental  

house feels more like home

Friday haiku

She asked me to leave  

my shoes by the door, but my  

feet are over here

Thursday haiku

We're staying in a  

rental house, our home for at  

least the next four days

Wednesday haiku

Walla Walla: the  

Eastern Washington town so  

nice they named it twice

Tuesday haiku

He wanted to be  

a puppeteer, but there's too  

many strings attached  

Monday haiku

You can ask Jesus  

to take the wheel but it won't  

work for carpool lanes

Weekend haiku

When driving in the  

carpool lane, pregnancy, pets  

and Jesus don't count  

----------------------------------  

Slowly easing in  

to this Sunday morning, I  

wish for one more day

Friday haiku

Two trains traveling  

in the darkness and one cries  

out, "I'm not a freight!"
