Two IEP drafts need to be finished. Every time I think about working on them, a terrible resistance arises.

Frankie wakes up at ten–way too late for that pancake breakfast he promised to make. So why is he acting so surly?

Two large nests sit in seperate bare Maples, awaiting their inhabitants. But this cold front and biting wind won’t cooperate.

    Such a shame about the nests being buffeted by a cold front and biting wind, Frank. Those baby birds need a safe home.

    We all had too much fun with this prompt; smile–like the one we did on Limericks.

    Enjoyed this Frank. Sadly, fake news is not a laughing matter these days.

    Sad about the two nests being beaten by the cold wind, sad about the political news.

    Is April Fool ‘s Day a day for trickery, or a reminder of what always is?
    Great haibun!
