Haiku

that crazy old quilt
she was piecing together
just before the stroke

Today we are expecting around 9 inches of snow. The kitties don't want to go outside. Neither do I. They say spring will arrive as usual. I am ready right now! Love, daver

using title haiku is just fine, Daver (Just reading what you said about titles. Haiku not supposed to have titles, so you did right).

Oh, and why must a poem have a title? They should do away with the requirement
