    Slivers of a weightless sound
    Straining you cannot hear me at all
    I chime to the quiet mind

    Five syllables here
    Another seven go here.

    Reading a Haiku
    Should I take in it’s beauty…
    Or count syllables?

    Find fun in the form
    Syllable counts are a breeze
    Beauty do I see
    Used to write for fun
    Then for work and for profit
    The fun went away

    Oh the daily grind
    Saps joy from most things we do
    When can we have fun
    Winter vacation
    Warm beach cold beer and sun burn
    Banishing our cares

    A warm sunny beach
    A margarita in hand
    And a haiku too
    Sand in my swim trunks
    Heat on my skin and within
    Good margarita

    I hear my cell buzz
    Sigh, Work will not be denied
    Longing for the beach

    I believed you went away
    Are you back to stay?
