Haiku Monday: The Getaway Winner

Good evening!

To the folks that stopped by and offered up a haiku or just said hi. I thank you. We did get away a bit this weekend.

Nature all around

With Turtles and Frogs and Birds

Red shorts distracting

 

OK back to the real subject. Foam was the first to jump in with:

 

Bipedal at last!
With crutches and walking boot
I venture outside

 

Then she came back with:

 

Narrow rocky trails
Crisscross babbling mountain brooks
This future must wait

 

And ode's to being ambulatory. I'm hoping you can run soon, if you want.

 

And speaking of running, Becca, put the pedal to the metal with:

red and blue flashes
smell of freedom in the air
fast getaway car

 

Then she toned down a bit, life's new reality?

treasures found within
pages crisp as an autumn leaf
escape within book

 

Amanda new to the Korner presented us with two:

 

Breathe it in Slowly
Enjoy the Sweet Salty Air
Daydream Only Now

 

Freshly Baked Cookies
Little Fingers Creep Up High
Take it Run and Laugh

 

Salt air does a body good, don't let it become just a dream. Your second is funny to me on many different levels. Suffice it to say, I have heard the laugh as the run commences.

 

And finally, Serendipity stepped in to taunt with cutthroat trout and cool dark water. Both very enticing:

 

Slick cobble pavement;
treacherous footing -- bear-bait!
But wait; a rise. Strike!

 

Cool, calm, dark water
reflects a shimmering moon.
A loon’s wild wailing.

 

And the winner: Amanda

 

Freshly Baked Cookies
Little Fingers Creep Up High
Take it Run and Laugh

 

Congratulations and please post in the comments box of this post when you have your topic for next week.
