Four Haiku's

Icy is the breeze
as it flows  over the Tundra
making big snow drifts 

Cheeky monkey waits
until your back is turned
then steals all your fruit

golden ray of sun
blazing paths full of sunlight
warms as it touches

rain teeming downward
flooding the marshy grasslands
beware the bog lands

Hauki's, haiku's, what's a poet to think. Is Shadow Hamilton starting to drink? Her train of thought has wondered some. She's all over the map. She's hot and cold and bought and sold. I think she's flipped her cap. Peace. :) Just having a little fun sweetie. :)
