Today is my birthday and I plan to take joy in life, but also reflect on the essential thoughts that have moved through my mind over the past few years while raising a child, moving across the country, building a house, battling a Pandemic, and navigating political and social unrest.
Pointless Haikus pt. 1
The hole in my sock
My favorite pair of socks
Saddens me sometimes
Pointless Haikus pt. 2
Avocados live
With life quickly passing by
Waiting in the bowl
Pointless Haikus pt. 3
The towel is wet
And hanging on in silence
For tomorrow’s bath
Pointless Haikus pt. 4
The scone stands alone
Riddled by the croissant’s joy
And muffin remorse
Pointless Haikus pt. 5
Fifty percent sweet
Is how I like my boba
More than that would be too much
Pointless Haikus pt. 6
Hand Sanitizer
Is my helpful companion
Day in and day out
Pointless Haikus pt. 7
Fart jokes show no age
Living in the words we speak
In the air like farts
Pointless Haikus pt. 8
The paper towels
Seem to be nearing their end
I must replenish
Pointless Haikus pt.9
Packaged sliced mango
Is not fair to the mango
Let the mango live
Pointless Haikus pt. 10'
The sand in ones sock
Can be very hard to find
But still we must try
Pointless Haikus pt. 11
High speed internet
Is how I check my email
I will reply soon
Pointless Haikus pt. 12
Tapping on the screen
Feeling reverberations
My thumb has a bruise
Pointless Haikus pt. 13
The pepto bismol
Works better in liquid form
That is what I think
Pointless Haikus pt. 14
It seems my shoe lace
Enjoys hanging on the cusp
Of being untied
Pointless Haikus pt. 15
The ice tray saga
Is a tale that never ends
But our drinks are Cold
Pointless Haikus pt. 16
I have been better
About flossing every night
I feel the cool mint
Pointless Haikus pt. 17
We did have a fork
We did not very much like
We threw it away
