This is a multi stanza haiku about my Valentine.
I know it is extremely random, but haikus never make sense anyways.
Enjoy!
It's Valentine's Day
Yet, I doubt you remembered
But I forgive you.
No bouquet I bet
Not even one lone flower
But I forgive you.
I don't expect much
Stay with me for an hour?
Let's walk; you like that
Can you stay by me?
Please don't run ahead today
Since it's Valentine's
After you may nap
On my bed? You're typical
But I forgive you.
Can I watch you sleep
And twirl your blonde, curly hair?
I hope you don't care
As you slowly wake
Your round eyes will look at me
Lovely expression.
Wet kisses. Yucky
I know you really love me
But face I still wipe
You are awake now
Recharged and ready to go
Now you will leave me
That is expected
That is what you always do
Stop stealing my shoes
No goodbye from you
Hey, my shoes are still missing
Out the door you go
Sad. Wait, not really.
That is what you always do
But I forgive you.
You come running back
Hooray, you bring in my shoes
Leaping in my arms
Though my shoes are wrecked
Thirty seconds we embrace
I guess it is true...
When the people say
A dog is a man's best friend
I love you Clifford...
But please stop stealing my shoes.

LOL at the immagery and randomness of shoe stealing
ReplyDeleteLovely, really lovely =) I can't believe you actually went with the multiple haiku idea! GJ girl! Beautiful is all I can say and... you know u like those "wet kisses"... ^^
ReplyDeleteMaranda,
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely and very sweet. Your haikus form a narrative thread that works well, and you effectively delay the revelation that you are talking about your dog to maximize the impact of your final verse. Well done!
