Grace, Charm, and Beauty
The three graces escape me
In mud covered boots
***
To me, spring cleaning
Means finding out what’s taken
Root under the fridge
***
Giai’s hot flashes
Window panes on roller skates
Her prerogative
Shall I continue?
There are more where those came from.
I’m game if you are.
Written for Chelsea Ann Owens terrible Poetry Contest. This weeks call is for springtime haiku.
I love those graces in mud-covered boots! But still charming. 🙂

I will be giving the spring cleaning a miss this year. I no longer care what might be lurking behind the fridge, or whether there is dust on the shelves. I have a book to finish and everything else will have to wait!

Wow, through windows of pain I could see the flashes of charm on roller skates flying through the mud haiku style. Fine root cellar too. Comprehensive indeed. Ah Springy things.
