Potting

I started writing something today, but I haven't finished it yet. Until I have a chance to post it, here's a haiku about something else I did today (I re-potted a spider plant).

Digging through soil,
Wrapping up a compact mass
With more of the same.

It's a Haiku!

Sometimes I look back on this past year and I am amazed at how things have changed.

I'm not used to it,
But good things can come of it -
Spontaneity!

Fall

Today at a bus stop I noticed something beautiful.

The morning is still,
I see something in a tree -
Leaves are raining down.

Thrift Shop

Once a month I work at a thrift shop.


Three books and a toy,
Two shirts and a pair of pants.
That'll be nine dollars.

Nighttime

Walking through the dark,
The wind blowing though my coat.
Out alone at night.

Sleep

Sometimes I have a hard time falling asleep because I've got a lot on my mind. This is usually how I feel.

Tossing and turning,
There's a song stuck in my head.
I can't fall asleep.

Another Review

I went to see a play this evening based on the shooting at Columbine High School. It was very good, especially in it's portrayal of the mental states of the shooters.

I just watched a man
Descending into madness -
Yelling and sobbing.

Cookies

Today I stood on a street corner yelling "Free cookies!" at passing strangers.

Giving out cookies,
It's harder than it should be.
They don't believe me.

-Kat

Cookies

This evening I baked many dozen cookies with my priest. That event inspired a haiku.


Baking late at night,
Sometimes weird things wander off.
Where's the cookie sheet?

A Play

I went to see a play this evening, and this is my review in haiku form.

A tricky story,
Full of strong words and struggles -
Laughter and sadness.

-Kat

Driving

I went driving with my mom around Stillwater today, and it inspired a haiku.

Where does that road go?
Let's start driving and find out.
Into the country.


-Kat

Conversations

Stuff happened today that I wasn't expecting to happen, so I wrote a haiku.


Just chatting a bit,
We should probably head home -
Two hours later.
