5 Ways to Look at Winter

1.
The seasons go on and on
but among all,
winter is pure beauty.

2.
Hockey and rink are one.
Hockey, rink and winter
are one.

3.
Hot chocolate in hand
we slay the monster of winter
but we don't try too hard.

4.
Shakespear wrote in thy frosty air,
breath of he curls behore thy.
A sprinkle of winter falls
in hair of he.

5.
It was evening all afternoon.
It snowed and it will snow.
But for now that snow
is no more.

Parallel Stanza - Travelling

Travelling

I love travelling.

You never get bored

And eating is lotsa fun,

On the bumpy road.

In our sun-kissed RV, you can’t get enough!

My big shades hide me from the hot rays,

And I drink the wind leaking from the open window.

I hate travelling.

It’s so boring.

You can’t eat

because of the rocky bumps.

Looking out of the rain soaked van window

Disappointment hides the twinkle in my eyes

And I drink the tasteless bottled water.

7 Ways to Look at Chocolate

1.
Among all the junk food
in the world,
I only run on chocolate.

2.
Cookie and milk is the stairway to heaven.
Chocolate, milk and cookie
is when you get there.

3.
He who eats of thy food of thy gods,
feels like thy gods thyselves.

4.
After a day's work,
I break off a square of heaven and
gulp it down real quick.

5.
Victory soars in the air.
War is over! Our soldiers come back home!
We lift our chocolate real high.

6.
The slaves picked the cocoa beans
off the plants for the richer.
They sometimes steal one or two for
cocoa bean is an excellent source of chocolate.
And chocolate is no sin, right?

7.
It was evening all afternoon.
It snowed and it will snow.
The chocolate wrapper lay engulfed be the snow in the dump.

Haiku - Could this be paradise?

Draft 1

Why travel the world

when all you need is here

and you didn't even know it?

(Anybody recognize the title?)

Haiku - The Judge

The music rings in my ear, through my soul

and I love it.

But the other ear makes my head shake in dismay.

Haiku - Success

Draft 1

When I see that grade,

I can't help but smile

because that grade beams of future.

Haiku - Kato

 

He's a pro when it comes to martial arts.

He attacks the Inspecteur without mercy.

He's gotta catch that mouse.

(By the way, the first two lines are about the real Cato in The Pink Panther, and the third line is my cat, Kato. I think its so cool that I could compare these two!!)

Haiku - The Nicest Weather

Draft 1

I hear
the sun
blowing through my hair.

(I know, I know, this peom doesn't make sense but I love it!)
