Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

Conditions for Love

Tina Stewart Brakebill

to break me, condone

my sins fill a laundry list

plenty to choose from 

woman dark eye spooky

Thanks to the following for the inspiration (prompts) of laundry, condone, and plenty: Rag Tag Community Word Challenge and Fandango’s FOWC and One Daily Prompt.

So Much Winning

Tina Stewart Brakebill

engines went silent

the time to fly was over

mother nature won  

I loved the peaceful feel of this photo by David Kovalenko but it also made me think of the orange one and his minion’s hysterical (and completely untrue) claim (let’s call it what it is—a lie) that the Green New Deal would abolish flying. This weird little haiku came out of that head space.

Thanks Susi. Read more and see the details for the haiku challenge at I Write Her.

Spring’s Debut

Tina Stewart Brakebill

thunder rocks n rolls

to the beat of pounding rain

spring debuts its band

40

This haiku was inspired by the rainy Florida days that harken the end of our beautiful winter weather. Colleen’s choose your own words Tanka Tuesday Challenge and this beautiful photo (courtesy of  Helene’s What Do You See Challenge) complemented my thoughts perfectly. Thanks!
