I am traipsing very slowly through Life is a Verb. The challenge on the page I last visited invited me to practice doing something for 37 days. The idea being that "practice makes perfect." At least, that's the way I interpreted it. Positing for a while, I opted to write a Haiku a day till I reach the 37 day mark. Knowing that I would not want to face a post with 37 Haikus, to digest at one sitting. So I'm choosing three from my first ten days' writing. Then, if I feel that my writing shows improvement by day 37, I'll post two or three from the latter ones.
Haiku: Day 5
Positive Attitude?
No car, no travels
Grey skies, no motivation
Buck up; be the sun!
Haiku: Day 6
Camera
Novel way to shoot
With macro lens and tripod,
Ecstatic new world!

Haiku: Day 9
Memories
Remembered events,
Important paths through my life,
Treasured images.

Post note: I was editing another post and noticed I'd never published this.
It's from March. :O I still have not completed the 37 day challenge, but I have made progress. :)

CONGRATULATIONS! I remember how I felt when I finally was able to buy the camera I've always dreamed of having. I saved up a LONG time for it--and it's everything I'd hoped for.
(grin) Have a wonderful rest of the weekend, my friend!
Be the sun. That is perfect. Keep going, you have talent for writing haiku. Must be so nice to have a new toy to play with... would like a macro lens myself, but have to jump a few hurdles first. :-)
These are beautiful haikus! I love the Camera haiku, so cool!
