NaHaiWriMo 2019: week 4

#Haiku Happenings #2: Bill Waters’ latest haiku for #NaHaiWriMo!

Bill Waters's avatarBill Waters ~~ Haiku

unable to see the forest
for the trees . . .
political myopia

[2/22 prompt = nearsightedness]


home from the burial . . .
the kindness
of casseroles

[2/23 prompt = casserole]


long, long ago
I was a tree . . .
school play

[2/24 prompt = school play]


grooming the cat —
enough fur in the brush
to make a mouse

[2/25 prompt = hair brushing]


what price progress?
studying the balance sheet
of history

[2/26 prompt = bank account balance]


ghost town . . .
in the general store
a lone can of pork and beans

[2/27 prompt = canned meat]


on the weekend
the school principal
is a nice guy

[2/28 prompt = school principal]
