Random Haiku

Avogadro sits, 
quietly counting, counting,
counting, counting, count…

Warm breeze lifts my face.
Bright sun's flash closes my eyes.
Eternal moment.

Two water balloons,
Perched in an open window.
Ah! I see a hand!

One family, five thoughts
About tonight's boiled rice.
Too sticky for me!

Great wind blows. Oaks sway.
Caterpillar freezes mid-
Step. Senses motion.

Echoes of tiny
Voices, trail behind my three
Running, laughing sons.

A taste of melon.
A morning kiss remembered...
Cascading hair glides.

Chance to steal a kiss!
Ignoring the pimple, I
Move closer. Smell gum. 

Please tell your students,
There is no such thing as cold,
Only lack of heat.
