Haiku Challenge Day 43

Today's post is based on something my brother wrote on Facebook. So I can't really take credit for it. Thanks for the inspiration, Thomas!

Feb. 12
Mighty wind pushes
Snow mountains like desert sands,
Become ice rivers.

Another rainy day
Mud puddles splash, droplets fly,
Splatter-paint my car.

Brightly colored spots
on pavement. Pink, yellow, blue.
Poor spilled, crushed Fruit Loops.

Haiku Challenge Day 40

Feb. 9
Baby Jonathan
Tiny nose, a wrinkled chin.
He squirms in my arms.

Western sky ablaze
Clouds like golden-white thumb prints
Tree limb silhouettes

Feb. 3
Scattered paper hearts
rain down from her pockets. She
showers love on us.

Stowaway green crane.
Will he find what I folded?
Token from sister.

Feb. 1
Old home video
Talk show skit– gangster, hippie,
crazy flute player.

I write haiku; fold
origami cranes, flowers;
should be Japanese.

Frozen fountain with
only burble of water.
Is that a real word?
