Month Pivots

The month switches voice
Throws good news toward a friend
And that makes me smile

All-day Planning Meeting

A conference room
Where our best-laid plans dress glass
Hope next year won’t suck

The Weather Clock

Needed house advise
Visit ends with drinks outside
Before fall gets mean

Retrospective Milestone

Hours melted away
Tweaking the year’s photobook
Itching for what’s next

Trying to Leave the House

Escaping Uptown
Closed streets, bike lanes, weird corners
Our obstacle course

November Pattern

Work and life jumbled
The day and night at my desk
Cat slept the whole time

Connected by Text

With pithy insights
Texts start and end the workday
Not sure we’ve grown up

The Stalker

Our bed is his web
Waiting for tuckered-out prey
For the cat’s cat nap

Haiku Annual Archive Review

Reading old haiku
Drags me through the year’s antics
Twisted coaster ride

Post Election Clean-up

We debrief our weeks
Shocks from last week still vibrate
Pause then plan what’s next
