Haiku Moment 8

HAIKU MOMENT 8


Stray cool breeze
Plants a calm ease;
Heat wave reprieve

~~~~~~~~~


So many laps
Round and round;
Brisk walking spree

~~~~~~~~~


Weary worry
Spreads load heavy;
Too much tension

~~~~~~~~~


A good laugh here
Marks worthwhile cheer;
Light moments ease

~~~~~~~~~


Mall excursion
Goodies galore;
Tempting bargains

~~~~~~~~~


Curious wonder
History unfolds;
Vanity confronts

~~~~~~~~~


Curious eyes watch
One winning glimpse;
Claims sure credit

~~~~~~~~~


Power decrees
Curious claims;
Hypocrisy reigns

~~~~~~~~~


Afterword
Too much, too quick;
Choke on delight

~~~~~~~~~


All in due time
Decipher mint;
Sing the same song

~~~~~~~~~


Nobody then
Somebody now;
Mental paralysis

~~~~~~~~~


Once upon
A yesterday;
Unknown quota

~~~~~~~~~
